Birthdays Matter

It seems as though the older we get, the less we care about our birthdays. When we were little, it was an exciting day when little Abby’s mom came in with cupcakes and candy for everyone singing happy birthday. It seemed like the best day ever! Or how about those Saturdays when your mom would take you to your friend’s house where fifteen other kids were running around chasing each other and playing with little toys from their goody bags while the parents sat at a picnic table chit chatting. It seemed like the time didn’t last long enough. You never wanted the party to end. Just pizza and ice cream and friends forever.
