Vesak

One reason for coming back was for H1 to grow up in a Buddhist environment. However, I think I managed to somehow scew-up the first lesson!

H1 asked me what Vesak was and I told her that it's Budusadu's B'day. I didn't want to elaborate the enlightenment and passing away as I thought she wouldn't grasp it. So I told her since Budusadhu told people to be good and do good, they would go to the temple and give to the less fortunate and so on.

On Vesak day we took her to the temple and urrrrrrm H1 started singing "Happy B'day to you, happy B'day to you, Happy B'day Budusadu, Happy B'day to you." Oh well...
