I suppose you can tell from the title that I love Birthdays. Think about this-food, flowers, food, cards,food (eaten out),presents and Cake ! You do not have to share this loot with anyone. If you're lucky people cater to your every whim and if they don't you just remind them "Hey it's my birthday". Sometimes if you have enough friends and far away family the festivities can go on for days!!!
Getting older is good too. I mean it-think about if you didn't. Aside from the fact that you would be dead or frozen in time, no one else would get older either. Your kids would never grow up, go to college, come home to live and pretend to look for job while really enjoying the fruits of your labor. Okay so my kids are 11 & 16 so I don't know, but I swear I've heard from reliable sources. Also how would you choose when to stop getting older? You certainly don't know what you might be missing. At 18 you think 30 is old! If I had stopped there I would miss my husband,my kids, my Porsche and years and years of cake & presents. So I recommend embracing the birthday concept (it's like the apocolypse- it's coming anyway-only kidding!) and have a blast. Open those presents ,drink a glass of champagne and enjoy the fact that you're around to drive everyone crazy for another year!
