Today is the birthday of my son. I am working today and he is biking with his friends and so we will not celebrate it this day. Just tomorrow. A simple coffee and tea drinking with a birthday cake tomorrow afternoon and a dinner with just the 3 of us. My son doesn't like to celebrate it with a party. Not like when he was a child. Do you celebrate your birthday with a party? I used to many years ago but I have changed my lifestyle since I got older. I am wiser now than before. I celebrate my birthday in just going to the restaurant with my family and friends if they are around. Anyway, Happy Weekend to all of you. The photo is the orchid hanging on my pomelo tree in my Philippines garden. My cousin sent it to me last night. I have to find out the name of this orchid. Ciao! See you later in your posts.

Happy birthday to your son. We usually have a simple lunch or dinner with just family. We are not fond of celebrating with a lot of people

@thelme55 That pizza sounds delicious! I don't blame you for not baking a birthday cake after working all weekend, and am so happy you all had a relaxing and lovely day with your son,

Thank you very much @DianneN. A birthday cake is a must but I didn't bake a cake for my son as I didn't have time as I was working for 2 consecutive days. Anyway, hubby brought my sons favorite German cake and it was delicious. We celebrate it just the 3 of us at home. Very relaxing bonding and we were looking our old photo albums and reminiscing the past. I baked a bacon mozzarella asparagus pizza for our dinner. It was the 1st time that I baked pizza with this combination. We all loved it.

Happy birthday to your son. We used to celebrate our son's birthdays with his classmates till he was four years old. Then it was mostly the three of us just a simple affair - siva

Yes, it was like that with my son until he was a teenager @Shiva49. We just go to a restaurant or I prepare dinner for us at home.

Happy Birthday to him first of all. I never celebrated my birthday. For my children, we celebrated it they were young. My younger son is turned 11 years on 11 of this month. Just distributed sweets among his class mates and I made a sweet dish at home specially for him.
