12 Jan - Jaxon's Birthday

Possibly Jaxon's last birthday on island. More than likely he will sneak another one in just before we head home next year. The day started early as they do when you turn '5'. After a couple of presents it was off to school.

Spot the 'whitie'. Jaxon loves hanging out with his Pohnpean friends.

As is the norm when it is someone's birthday they make a big deal of it. This year Indi was able to be part of the celebration and was part of the tunnel that Jaxon had to walk through.


Jaxon was assigned five boys to help him, with them all required to follow him around for the ceremony.

King for five minutes.


After school it was out to lunch with our friend Brenda. He has the gift of the gab, after going and choosing his birthday present he went out for lunch. Then he convinced Brenda to take him home so that he could watch cartoons at her house.


Uncle Marty and Auntie Penny sent to awesome car track over for Jaxon. It's been used pretty constantly for a five days now and hasn't broken. Great present. Anything that Jaxon doesn't break in the first day could probably survive re-entry on the space shuttle.


Down the Surfclub for dinner. We saw this guy paddling past, another great sight in Pohnpei.


The next day we played with Jaxon's new cricket bat and ball set. Indi was happy to throw the ball in any direction. Jaxon's coordination is coming along and he managed to smack a few balls to the boundary.
