Colorful Happy Birthday Candles

My first birthday party! I remember all of these kids and a number of giants (adults) who kept pushing me around to say hi to these other kids I've never seen before, probably their children. It was definitely a very social evening affair at my paternal grandparents' house in the Philippines who loved to party with their high-society friends, but it went on too long and I remember throwing a tantrum - complete with me jumping and flipping my dress up - since it was late and I wanted to just blow out my cakes, open my presents, play and sleep. Not roam around like a well-behaved 12-month old meet, greet, curtsy and accept presents from strangers. Gawd, that sounds stressful no wonder it stuck in my mind after all of these years that and the single birthday candle I finally blew out.
