We Are Alive! Sharing a Birthday!

in #aliveandthriving2 days ago

Last evening we celebrated the birthday of my oldest child. Just so happens to also be my birthday as well.

We invited family over for presents and cake and ice-cream. We had a wonderful time chatting and discussing various goings on.

Family birthdays are not focused on the people celebrating the birthday, as much as it's an opportunity and excuse to have a family get-together. We do give gifts, and plenty of "happy birthdays", but no blowing out candles, or singing the happy birthday song (although that does happen sometimes) or focus on opening presents.

Rather, we share conversation, enjoy good cake and catch up on what everyone has been up to the last few weeks. This birthday, I shared some special jelly beans - doughnut flavors!

It was a great birthday party! Bless the Most High!

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

It must be great to have two birthdays in the family on the same day. Happy Birthday to both of you! Wish you the best in life!

It's so cool to share birthdays with your kid. Double celebrations!
!BBH

Wow, she is so beautiful like her parents

That sounds like such a lovely way to celebrate.
It's so special that you and your oldest share a birthday, it must make the day even more meaningful.
I really like the idea of using birthdays as a reason to bring everyone together and just enjoy each other's company.
Sometimes those simple moments of connection are the best.
And cake and ice cream are always a great bonus.

I totally agree with that, what a time for family reunion.
The opening picture of you and your daughter is awesome. Have a nice one.
