He Ruizhe's birthday is approaching, and this is not only the first time he has invited children to celebrate his birthday, but also an important moment in his growth. Gu Yunxi knows this well, and she is determined to make this day special and unforgettable.
Early in the morning, Gu Yunxi was busy, her heart filled with love for her son and anticipation for the birthday party. She specially invited the family chef to prepare a sumptuous feast, with each dish chosen to suit the children's tastes.
"Ruize, Mom has prepared your favorite fried chicken nuggets, pizza, and various snacks for you." Gu Yunxi said to her son while busy preparing the food.
He Ruizhe's eyes sparkled with excitement: "Wow, Mom, these are all my favorites!" He circled around the dining table, his little hand pointing to the colorful and fragrant food from time to time.
In addition to Chinese food, Gu Yunxi also specially invited the chef from her mother's Western restaurant to add Western desserts and snacks to the birthday banquet. The chef brought all kinds of cakes, macarons, chocolate fountains, and various exquisite snacks, each one of which was mouthwatering.
"Mom, these desserts look so beautiful!" He Ruizhe exclaimed, his eyes scanning over the exquisitely decorated desserts, clearly eager to try them.
Gu Yunxi smiled, her heart filled with satisfaction: "Ruize, these are all prepared by your mother for you and your friends. I hope you have a happy birthday."
As the time drew near, He Ruizhe's children arrived one after another. They were immediately drawn to the delicious food and decorations upon entering, squealing with excitement. Gu Yunxi and He Siyan warmly welcomed each little guest, ensuring they felt right at home.
The birthday party began amidst laughter and joy. The children sat around a table decorated with ribbons and balloons, enjoying the food and sharing their happiness. Gu Yunxi and He Siyan watched from the side, their faces beaming with bliss.
"Yunxi, you really put on such a beautiful birthday party," He Siyan said softly to Gu Yunxi, his eyes filled with admiration and affection.
Gu Yunxi leaned gently on He Siyan's shoulder, her heart filled with gratitude: "Siyan, I just hope that Ruize can have an unforgettable birthday."
The party reached its climax as the birthday cake was brought out. He Ruizhe blew out the birthday candles, and the children sang "Happy Birthday" to him. Gu Yunxi and He Siyan watched quietly from the side, their hearts filled with beautiful wishes for the future.
This birthday party not only allowed He Ruizhe to feel the love of his family and friends, but also taught him to share and be grateful. Gu Yunxi and He Siyan felt warm and proud watching their son's happy face.
As the birthday party progressed, He Ruizhe received a huge pile of gifts from the children. These gifts filled a corner of the living room, and the colorful wrapping paper and ribbons filled the entire space with a festive atmosphere.
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan watched their son unwrap his gifts, their faces beaming with pride. He Ruizhe sat amidst the pile of gifts, his little hands busily tearing open each wrapper, his face growing more delighted with each one he opened.
"Wow, it's a remote control car!" He Ruizhe exclaimed in surprise, his eyes sparkling with excitement. He couldn't wait to grab the remote and make the little car run around the living room, leaving behind a string of cheerful laughter.
Next, he opened a beautifully packaged box containing an exquisite dinosaur model. He Ruizhe's eyes immediately lit up: "This is my favorite Triceratops model!" He carefully held the model in his hands, as if admiring a precious work of art.
Looking at the smile on her son's face, Gu Yunxi felt a surge of warmth in her heart: "Ruize, it seems your friends really understand your preferences."
He Siyan nodded in agreement: "Yes, Yunxi, seeing Ruizhe so happy, I feel that all our efforts have been worthwhile."
As each gift was unwrapped, He Ruizhe's exclamations of surprise echoed throughout the room. There were adorable dolls, interesting books, and various educational toys. Each gift represented the children's blessings and friendship.
"Mom, Dad, I love these gifts!" He Ruizhe excitedly showed his parents his treasures as he unwrapped them.
Gu Yunxi gently stroked her son's head and said tenderly, "Ruize, remember to thank your friends. They really put their hearts into it."
He Ruizhe nodded seriously: "I understand, Mom. I will write thank-you cards for them."
The birthday party continued amidst laughter and joy. He Ruizhe played games and shared cake with the children, and the whole family was immersed in happiness and joy.
As night fell, the birthday party drew to a close. He Ruizhe reluctantly said goodbye to the children, his little hands still clutching several of his favorite gifts. Gu Yunxi and He Siyan saw off the last child, then tidied up the living room together.
He Siyan looked at Gu Yunxi and said softly, "Yunxi, today's birthday party was a great success. Ruizhe looks very happy."
Gu Yunxi smiled and replied, "Yes, Si Yan, seeing Ruize so happy makes me feel very satisfied. This will be a wonderful memory of his childhood."
For days after the birthday party, He Ruizhe was still basking in the joy of receiving gifts. Every day after school, he would pick out a gift to play with, feeling the love and blessings from his friends.
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan noticed how much their son cherished the gift, and they decided to use this opportunity to teach He Ruizhe to be grateful and give back.
"Ruize, your friends have given you so many gifts. How do you plan to thank them?" Gu Yunxi asked as she sat on the living room carpet with her son, sorting through the gifts, on a warm evening.
He Ruizhe looked up and thought seriously about his mother's question: "Mom, I want to write them thank-you cards and tell them how much I like their gifts."
Gu Yunxi smiled and nodded, encouraging her son's idea: "That's a great idea. Expressing gratitude is very important. We can also do something extra, like making some small gifts to give back to them."
He Siyan also joined the discussion: "We can make some cookies or crafts together, that would be more thoughtful."
He Ruizhe's eyes lit up: "Okay, Dad, I want to make cookies, and I can also draw some pictures to give to them."
So, the family decided to make return gifts together over the weekend. Gu Yunxi prepared various baking ingredients, while He Siyan found some small craft tools and materials. He Ruizhe prepared drawing paper and colored pencils, intending to draw some simple pictures as gifts.
Baking day began, and Gu Yunxi patiently taught He Ruizhe how to knead dough, cut, and decorate cookies. He Ruizhe learned very diligently, and although his little hands were covered in flour, a satisfied smile remained on his face.
He Siyan helped his son complete the craft project. Together they made some colorful little pendants, each engraved with a pattern drawn by He Ruizhe himself.
After a day of hard work, the return gifts were finally ready. He Ruizhe carefully wrapped the cookies and handmade pendants, then wrote thank-you cards by hand, expressing his gratitude to his friends.
A few days later, He Ruizhe took the return gifts to the kindergarten and personally gave them to each of his friends who had given him birthday presents. The children who received the gifts were very surprised and delighted; they felt He Ruizhe's thoughtfulness and friendship.
This birthday party not only taught He Ruizhe gratitude and sharing, but also taught him how to express his emotions and respect the kindness of others through interactions with his friends.
Seeing their son grow and progress filled Gu Yunxi and He Siyan with pride and joy. They knew that these life experiences would help He Ruizhe become a kinder and more responsible person.
