I cannot remember a birthday that i spent alone . Even when i am in Manila , my sister and her family were there to celebrate it with me . Besides , my husband and daughter called me as well as my family here called to greet also .

It's enough that we have them for our birthday , just as your brother is so happy to have chatted with you three , on his birthday .

@ridingbet I think he find enjoyment in living alone because anyway , he can always connect with all of your anytime he would want to.

I can't remember ever being alone on my birthday. At least your brother had you to chat to. That's a lovely rose.

A late birthday greeting to your brother Ate :) As for your question, I never had to celebrate my birthday alone. Because I celebrate the same day with my father and my now deceased uncle (my father's elder brother). I remember when I was still a child, my uncle who was well-off used to throw a big party to celebrate our birthdays. Now that he's been gone for so many years, my father and I celebrate our birthdays with our family. And to my Papa, I will always be his baby girl : )

@ridingbet Papa and I used to celebrate our birthdays in a Chinese restaurant at Ongpin (Chinatown). The restaurant that we used to go to had to accommodate our large family hehe. But now that he moved to San Juan, the mere idea of travelling to Ongpin tires him. These recent years, we spent our birthdays at his favorite mall (Robinson's Magnolia). With the suffocating climate, he really enjoys the cold air at the mall.

@jcj_111776 Indeed, that is nice of him to be in a cool place. It is so hot here in my place again, and I would prefer to just stay indoors for fear of heat stroke.

That is good, hija. My birthday? We celebrate it with a cake given by my son, and then we have noodles (pansit) for long life. sometimes we buy 'na lang', sometimes, my sister also cooks. Of course, our FB page is always flooded with the greetings from our family and friends alike

it's so much easier now compared to long distance operator-assisted calls and letters that take weeks to arrive. i hope we get to see his blooming flowers, too. did he like gardening when he was still here?

@ida123 I was always on duty, my friend. We both go to church then I have my duty after. But that is just fine. Having celebrations in a Muslim country is not fun too because we cannot serve pork barbecue at all.
