My favorite birthday memory was when my then husband got together with our church friends and surprised me with a bus party. We had all went to a cascade, when everyone was on the return trip home the cupcakes came out! What a good memory.
My favorite memory was on my moms birthday one year. My sister brought the cake in to show everyone. She had it at a slight angle. The cake slid off the tray into the floor. We didn’t have cake, but we all had a great laugh. I miss my parents so much. Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday!
Another birthday ritual I loved was the birthday cake! My mother would bake us whatever kind of cake we wanted. I loved a yellow cake with chocolate chip and coconut frosting!
One of my favorite birthday rituals FOR MY SONS was to sing the phrase all day “It’s your birthday you can cry if you want to”. To this day….. they remember me singing that every year! In fact when my son was in jail on his birthday, he called and reminded me of the song 🙁
Now you’ve done it! Now, I can’t get the tune out of my head! So good to have these kind of memories. And one more thing, CONGRATULATIONS on winning one of the five surprise FLASH GIVE AWAYS TONIGHT!

This year was my 50th birthday and we went to Hawaii. I have been to many beaches but never one with beautiful clear blue water. It was a difficult trip because one of my sons is having some health issues and he came with us, but I determined to enjoy every minute and I did. It taught me to live in the moment.
This year! My best birthday memory was this year in April.My son’s present was my birthday cake and his complete presence;
When I was little a Birthday meant a party with all your cousins. I had many cousins which made it so much fun. We always had soda pop and cake. Each family brought a cake so there was a whole table full! I always had a new dress that my Mom made for me. Great memories!
