I grew up in a family where birthdays are given humongous
attention. Since I was one, my mother made sure that a birthday party is always staged for me. Because of this practice, I had this
mentality that my own children’s birthday celebrations should be really worth remembering too.
Now I’m pondering, how am I going to make my son’s birthday special again this
2016?

Last year was rather simple. It was an educational
tour-slash-a team building activity. I purchased some discount tickets for
Ark Avilon Zoo online, so that the kids could learn about the domesticated and
wild animals from various parts of the world. Then I also opted to have our lunch celebration at Tiendesitas. Due to some budget constraints, Vladimir’s
guests that time were merely my immediate biological family, my select office
buddies, and his godparents. We were round about fifteen.

It was really heart warming to witness the fun and
excitement not only in the kids’ eyes but also in their parents’. After
my son’s birthday tour, I felt accomplished because I know this activity made
him learn something new.

I heard from someone that a child’s 7th birthday
should be one of the grandest. Too bad I have fewer pennies this year due to my
recent chaotic experience. At any rate, I’m pretty determined to make my son’s
birthday this year to be another wonderful one to cherish in his memory.
