My Thailand Diary

It was my sons birthday yesterday. Sorry, didn’t get a pic of the cake.. completely forgot.,, but it was round, had a soccer guy on it kicking a ball. Looked nice for a 6 year old boy.
We had a great party, very LOUD and I played games with them. Alot of games. Luckily my Daughter11 did the whole treasure hunt and my Son9 did some soccer training with them and refereed a game. How cool is that?

Here is who he invited. An interesting mix of seven boys

In the evening I was exhausted. I always find birthdays emotional. Child birth is one of the most amazing, horrible, traumatic, wonderful, beautiful things in the world. Celebrating the birth of a family member is a great thing. How often do we celebrate someone we love, tell them we love them, bring gifts and really go the extra mile for them? I’d like to, but reality is always different. It needs a birthday to really put all that extra effort into it But, come to think of it, I would like to celebrate people I love more…. hmmmm
