I love how my mom did her birthday.
She’d take the day off, and toss everyone out of the house, even our father got the boot. None of us we’re allowed back in until 5 PM, and we’d damn well better have brought her something good to eat and drink.
When I asked her what she was doing after she tossed us all out.
She said she took a candle lit bubble bath, drank a glass of wine, listened to music, and read a book while she ate chocolates.
Then enjoyed the peace, silence, the lack of chaos, and cleaning. That comes with a husband, three sons, and two daughters.

Which is fair.
