Today is my half birthday.
Yes, I recognize that today is also Christmas Eve. But it’s my half birthday. And that is far more important.
Every year, I celebrate my birthday AND my half birthday at home. With my family. No crazy ragers. No bottle service at a club. No trips to Vegas.
Just at home. With my family. A pile of board games. A fireplace to snuggle up next to.
Endless chatter. Lots of shrieking. A number of Mom-lectures. Facetimes going on multiple phones to ‘call in’ the family that can’t be there.
But also a few moments of silence, just being present with one another.
It is the best way to celebrate.
Happy half birthday to me.
How are you celebrating?
