My Daughter Turned 8 Years Old Yesterday (01-02-09) email this discussion to a friend?

Yesterday, January 2nd, 2009 was my daughter's 8th birthday. It seems just like yesterday that I was going to the hospital to have my labor induced to have her.
We celebrated her birthday by going to a local indoor play place with a game room and food. She had such a blast. We bought a small cake since it was just myself, her, and my 2 year old son and we took it to Bonkers with us. She picked it out, it was a very cute cake a little puppy dog with a firehidrant and doggy dish. I uploaded a picture of her and her cake. You can tell how much fun she had, just look at that wild hairdo. lolIt really makes a Mommy proud to see how happy your children are especially when you know you had something to do with it.
How do you normally celebrate your children's birthday?

Happy Birthday to your daughter! We usually have a small party at the house for our kids. We decided after the 5th birthday we would stop the yearly party and do something special with them. When my daughter turned 6 this year we took her, her brother and sister and two friends to chuck e cheese. Next year she wants to go bowling.

Oh, my daughter loves Chuck E Cheese too. I asked her this year if she wanted to go there for her birthday and she said that she would rather go to Bonkers (the play place we went to). So, I let her choose. I'm sure when my son gets old enough I will let him decide what he wants to do on his birthday too. Thanks for the comment!

I'm happy to have read another story of another proud mom. I personally want to celebrate my children's birthdays (i have four of them) not only because i am happy to realize they are already growing, but also to celebrate the additional years added to my life.

YOu see, giving birth is just like putting your other foot in the grave. Having successfully delivered a child with my body still intact and alive, is a success no other person would feel other than moms.

Congratulations to your dauther, and to you fellow mom!!!

pardon the misspelled word dauther, it should be daughter. i can't edit it though. Have a nice day my friend.

Yes, the birth of a child is something special that only a woman can now. It is a wonderful experience. You never appreciate life as much until you are a mother and give life to someone. Thanks for the comment!

Oh Happy Birthday to Destiny and yes you can really see that she had a great time look at the smile on her face happy

For us when it is one of the kids birthday we just have the family over and have a cake and nibbles except for the big parties like an 18th, 21st etc etc then it is a big party with the works, my son just turned 18 last Nov so we had a huge big party for him in a hall and there was that many people you could hardly move in the place but it was a good night and everyone had a good time and all the young guy's behaved them self so we were very happy with that night!

I bet that party was a blast. Happy belated birthday to your son! Thanks for the comment!

Happy Birthday to your daughter. She is really cute looks happy and sweet!

When it's one of our kids birthdays (they are older now, but we still do the same things) we have the family over and the birthday person gets to pick where they want to eat and then we all play games at home and/or go swimming (for summer birthdays only)

That sounds like a lot of fun. I'm sure everyone enjoys themselves. Thanks for the comment!

Happy Birthday to your daughter,my grand daughter turned 8 in June.My girls are all grown now but when they were little we always celebrated their birthdays how ever they wanted to but we always had a cake with what ever else we were doing.you have a great night.


myLot reputation of 98/100. singlemommy (973)   ranked 189 out of 7,174 in family  1 year ago

Yes, I think it is good let them choose what they want for their birthday. To me it is not only their day, but a mother's day too. That being so, seeing you child happy makes the mother happy too. Thanks for the comment!

Happy birthday to her:)
Well,I have no child now, so I don't know how do I normally celebrate his/her birthday. But in my country, our tradition is to have a bowl of long-life noodles which means the best wishes to the people who eat them will live for more than 100 years, of course, we eat birthday cake, too.

Belated Happy Birthday to your daughter. Yeah, as a mom, we're very happy if we can give happiness to our kids. That's our weaknesses. Their happiness is also our happiness.

By the way, I usually celebrate my kids birthday by giving them a small party in our house. friends, neighbors are all invited. During my kids birthday,i usually have cake, ice cream, spaghetti, shanghai, hotdog with mallows. I also rent a kids table and chair, clowns that do some tricks and magic, they also serve as host. I also buy balloons and prepare some games and give away.

But this coming birthday of my daughter which is april, im planning to celebrate her birthday at Jollibee, so it can save more time...


myLot reputation of 98/100. singlemommy (973)   ranked 189 out of 7,174 in family  1 year ago

That sounds like so much fun! I'm sure your daughter will have an awesome birthday in April! Thanks for the comment!

Happy birthday to your darling daughter. Her pic shows her eyes are really sparkling with delight. I am sure she must have thoroughly enjoyed herself. It is realy great to see our children enjoy. My daughters are grown now and one is married, but when they were young, we always celebrated by inviting altheir friends over for a party. I alwyas organised games for them and had plenty of presents and back presents. I used to spend th whole day decorating the house an dmy wife lovely cakes and other delicacies. The children really had a ball and would not want the party to be over.

Sounds like lot of fun! You both sound like great parents! Thanks for the comment!

Sounds like you all had a really nice time. She looks real cute! I think it's nice to celibrate birthdays with just a few people. I've always had a better time doing that, and everybody can just be themselves. My son will be two in April, we will just have something small for him as he's very young yet. My husband is from Pittsburg, but we live in Ireland (I'm Irish), so all of his family are not here. I was an only child so I dont have a big family anyway. Some year I'd love us to go to see Ben's (my sons) cousins in the US, it would be great fun.


myLot reputation of 98/100. singlemommy (973)   ranked 189 out of 7,174 in family  1 year ago

Oh I bet it would be fun for all of you to visit your husband's family. How did the two of you meet? Thanks for commenting!
