This week we celebrated the 13th birthday of our youngest with a small party at a local restaurant with family and she even got to take the day off from school which is something special that we give an option to have on this special day.
Becoming a teenager isn't quite a big deal in some families but as she has two older siblings, it was quite a special day for her and her grandma and the rest of the family. We're blessed to have her in now being a teenager rather than a "tween".
She was able to enjoy her special day and I took her out to do some special things that she wanted to do that we would otherwise not have time to do. It also gave me time to be with her to discuss her thoughts and it was very special for all of us too.
Sometimes we've even gone overseas to enjoy special birthdays, especially those that are significant as a way of enjoying the special day and having a holiday vacation. Nothing quite beats taking time off from busy days and chillaxing...
