Re: Birthdays
We only celebrated it with our immediate family at home and that was it. My parents never even mentioned that our b-days were coming up to other people because they felt it was like asking people for gifts.
I dont ever recall asking for a party or feeling like I was missing out on anything. I was content with my b-day being acknowleged/celebrated by family only...it was enough for me and still is.
Exactly the same here
