Dathliad teuluol

Dathliad teuluol ~ A family celebration


“Besides, how opposed I am to that scientific way of treating the family as if it were uniquely a fabric of constraints and rites: either we code it as a group of immediate allegiances or else we make it into a knot of conflicts and repressions. As if our experts cannot conceive that there are families whose members love one another”
― Roland Barthes

Roedd ail ddathliad pen-blwydd Nor'dzin heddiw. Aethon ni i ymweld â Richard, Steph a theulu. Roedd dda i chwarae 'Uno' (gêm gardiau) gyda phawb. Mae'r plant yn fwyaf trawiadol yn y ffordd maen nhw fwynhau'r em. Nid yw ennill a cholli mor bwysig iddyn nhw - maen nhw'n jyst mwynhau'r gêm. Mwynheais i Zoe yn arbennig yn dramateiddio ei siom o orfod codi cardiau. Mae gwers yno.

Enillais i'r gêm, felly, wrth gwrs, mae hynny'n bwysig iawn.

Aethon ni allan i Scaramantica Pizzeria am ginio. Mae llawer o le mewn pellter cerdded i fwyta yn y Rhath, ac mae Scaramantica dim ond pum munud i ffwrdd. Mae'r Rhath yn well na 'r Eglwys Newydd yn y ffordd hon. Mae ein Pizzeria agosach yn pymtheg munud i ffwrdd. Dim yn ddrwg, ond dim cweit mor gyfleus.

Roedd diwrnod da iawn. Aethon ni adre yn hwyr ond yn hapus.

Today was Nor'dzin's second birthday celebration. We went to visit Richard, Steph and family. It was good to play 'Uno' (a card game) with everyone. The children are most impressive in the way they enjoy the jewel. Winning and losing is not that important to them - they just enjoy the game. I especially enjoyed Zoe dramatising her disappointment at having to pick up cards. There is a lesson there.

I won the game, so, of course, that's very important.

We went out to Scaramantica Pizzeria for lunch. There are many places within walking distance to eat in Roath, and Scaramantica is only five minutes away. Roath is better than New Church in this way. Our nearest Pizzeria is fifteen minutes away. Not bad, but not quite as convenient.

It was a very good day. We went home late but happy.
