Chynara's sister brought a cake with a horse on it, made with icing and a lot of patience.
I'll never forget the sight of eight-year-olds in kalpaks and cowboy hats, shouting in a mix of two languages, running under a pinata. They didn't need translation.
My sister says the horse was her best. She is already making another for her son.
