People simply do not have enough time, money or energy. And inevitably celebrating our births is lumped in with the holidays. Birthday slash Christmas gifts, Christmas cards signed — “and have a happy birthday” are all too common. So, since everyone else wants to lump my birthday in with the the holidays, I decided…if you can’t beat them, join them. And join them I did.

I decided this year I would celebrate the 12 days of my birthday! YAY for 12 whole days to celebrate my birth! I fully anticipated this would be a solo celebration but I was wrong! HA! I love how those in my life indulge me in my fanciful ideas!

Today is Day 7 of the 12 days of my birthday… the halfway point and here are some of my gifts and fun!

"Let your heart be light. Wish." Sweet mug with matching box (Day 3) Monkey magnet bookmark (Day 7) Magnetic Bookmarks (Day 7) My favorite! Magnetic Bookmark clips (Day 7) Pretty keepsake box (Day 3) Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies with Walnuts (Day 4) The writable mug -- Books to read! (Day 5) A mug you can write on! (Day 5) Day 1 (Holiday Tea) from Barnes and Noble

Thanks to my friends for indulging me! =) And playing along! How fun! I also got a new game (thanks to a gifted credit!)! Yay for games! Yay for elongated birthday celebrations! =)

Suffice to say, I think a new tradition has been hatched!

We have a tradition of such sweet vandalism in this house… on everyone’s birthday there are little reminders of how happy we are they were born. I think they like me. =)
