So sharing a birthday is normal to me. I don't know what it's like to have my own "day." For some reason I put high expectations for my birthday and they come crashing down. Going to bed on my birthday is the most depressing night. It's weird I know. My sister has even more dominant, high expectation personality going for her and she highly makes it known: to my parents, her hubby, etc. She usually got the spotlight since her personality is more "DOMINANT" and typical "oldest child." My hubby is NOT a gift person, nor big into birthdays. It's quite the annoyance but I just have to remember not to make it a big deal. Hard but true.<br /> Mary Kaisandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13110041135695152301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143028068444804616.post-58423100315071041952013-04-19T05:55:40.983-07:002013-04-19T05:55:40.983-07:00I love this post!

I agree that birthdays change once you have kids. I hope that someone else can watch your kiddos and you and hubby can have a celebrate on another day.

I remember many moons ago when I turned 30(!) I hired a babysitter for the day (which felt pretty decadent) and went furniture shopping! Funny that birthday stands out more than #'s 40 or 50...still have the chair I bought, too! :-)Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05331006961497027532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143028068444804616.post-66031044744936646092013-03-21T11:15:19.193-07:002013-03-21T11:15:19.193-07:00Happy Happy Birthday!!!
