Miss Elena celebrated her first birthday party fashionably late. Since she just made her appearance in the US two days prior to turning one, we thought we would wait until she got settled in before having a big bash to celebrate her special day.
She wore her beautiful hanbok that was a gift from her foster family. During the toljabee ceremony Elena first chose the knife (which means she will be a good cook.....hopefully someone teaches her because it won't be Mommy) and secondly she chose the thread which symbolizes a long life for Elena.
Shout out to the Golden Delight Bakery for making this delicious cake.
