“Do not regret getting older. It is a privilege denied to many.” Unknown
Spidey is being philosophical today, as February in our family is a total Birthday Bomb!
Starting with my brother-in-law, then going on to my mother-in-law and Hubby Dearest on the same day, followed by father-in-law and Lil Princess, again on the same day…
Yup, it’s a busy month, too much cake on tap, presents to think of and special treats to organise, but a fun month nevertheless.
And each year is an opportunity to be thankful for the chance at another year. Another chance to learn all that life has to offer.
Right, now I am off to work off a whole load of cake!
So… tell me, what do birthdays mak eyou think of?

A really busy birthday month in your family. Next year I am turning 50. I am not afraid of that. it just feels so surreal because I don’t feel like that age at all … lol!

Wow, that’s a lot of February babies! Happy Birthday to all those celebrating, and enjoy the cake because that, in my humble opinion, is the best part of so many birthdays to attend! 😉

I totally agree each year is a gift. And getting older can be tough but it’s a privilege that is denied to many. Happy birthday wishes to your family!

Birthdays are a great chance to remind people how you feel about them – perhaps something I take for granted too often…never a bad time to say something nice to someone you care about!

Me and my sister and mother have birthdays this month – Mum is the same age as the queen, just beating her to 93! By the 23rd we will have a great group all of us in multiples of 3 – my 3 children, 4 grandchildren and sister and Mum! Not saying which number I am of course! ₩

Birthdays make me think of the day my boys were born, a day my life changed forever and a day when I was stronger than I ever thought I could be. I call on that strength sometimes when I’m low. We have a special song we sing on birthdays, in addition to “Happy Birthday,” in which the angels sing and blow on their horns and dance at the birth. So, I guess birthdays make me think of angels too! Enjoy your special month, Ritu!

Birthdays : Spidey is so right there Sis. I hope you have a lovely month 💜💜💜
You can run and you can hide
But the birthday can see far and wide.
You can lie to hide the years
But why deny the joy and tears
You can not stop the march of time
But if you just accept it you’ll see it all fine.
You might not accept the laughter lines
But they are reminders of the happy times.
