Yes, my mom made it a tradition to give me useful things on my birthday 🎂🎁🌈 Sometimes, she still gives me cute but not so useful things also lol 😂
You’re the best gifts God gave me 🎁❤🐈 Love is spelled M-E-O-W! 🐈👸😻
“My birthday theme for 2018 is #MyFavoriteThings. It may not be obvious, but I have struggled with birthday blues ever since I was a kid. When I was a child and a teenager, I allowed myself to be swept away by the annual birthday blues, while my mom, my relatives and friends all valiantly and patiently tried to cheer me up each time my birthday comes around (and forced me to celebrate with them lol!). As I grew up into an adult and as I grew closer to God, I myself did my part to battle the birthday blues by trying to cheer up other people on my birthday and also by doing the things I like. Yet even if it may not be obvious, it’s still a struggle almost every year, although being more proactive has helped a lot. Some of my personal cheerleaders are still by my side, while some are now far away or are busy or have their own lives and challenges. I am thankful for all of them and how they helped me when I couldn’t help myself. I know they will all be proud of me that I am now trying to help myself too, while acknowledging that I can’t do it totally by myself at the same time. This year, as I try with the Lord’s help to heal and recover from physical and mental challenges alike, I deliberately simplified my birthday in line with my #Live4Infinity #LifeProject. I also intentionally chose to spend time with my favorite hoomans and cats, to do my favorite activities, and to surround myself with my favorite things. I am also trying to relax and chill more. I want to celebrate and appreciate the things that make life beautiful and interesting, not just on my birthday, but in the days to come.
“LAUREN’S MEOWY BIRTHDAY 2018 W/ CUTIE THE CAT & MAMA UNI” is PART 1 of 10 of #MYFAVORITETHINGS Birthday Series. I pray that this series will encourage others who may also struggle with birthday blues.
Thanks again to everybody for your birthday greetings. Thank you even more for being part of my life, my family and friends. Even if I may not see you or talk to you that often these days, I am grateful for each and every one of you and for the role you played in my real-life story and for the role I played in yours, then and now. We love you all!
Flying cat kisses from Lauren, Mama Uni and Cutie the Cat 🐈❤😻”
