My old kid turned 19 on Monday….
That is a little weird… I mean, well, 18 was the whole adult thing and everyone was kinda weird about that. She had to start college and she needed to be driving and she had to worry about her adult life and all.
Nineteen comes around and it was kinda just well, like most adult birthdays… just a day, a cake, family well wishes and maybe a dinner out.
She told me later on that it was kinda a little weird for her too. I imagine it was. I am trying to remember my 19th birthday. Can’t really picture it in my memories. I suppose it’s her welcome to the adult world where only big deal birthdays get much recognition anymore… 21… 30…40… 50? Seems like every 10 years you make it, we all gotta get together and be astonished and celebrate! Sounds like fun….

Happy Birthday to Jessy!
I’ll be turning 26 soon. You are so right about adult birthdays! Just not the same as they were when we were kids. I like to wear an “It’s my Birthday pin” to work on mine, just so everyone has to wish me a good one. That makes it a little more joyful!
