[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, can I ask you something?

If you feel this way, why wouldn’t you just say “hey family, I appreciate the pie but I think I’m realizing I’d like to do up my 50th more. I want a gift and for the teens to plan and execute some sort of celebratory dinner. Is next Saturday okay?”

Like why just let it go by and be disappointed? It doesn’t matter if it’s not your actual birthday. You could also still plan a party. No one would care if it’s a few months after the official date. [/quote]

OP here.  I'm actually going to do this.  It's the morning after today and I've feeling sad but I'm going to rally and get this dinner together for next weekend.  Thank you to everyone who suggested this and encouraged me that it's not too late.

What makes me saddest is that all 3 of my kids were not even together for the piece of pie yesterday.  It felt like a complete non-event.  I don't need things or a grand event but I would like a moment in time when I see my kids and husband.  [/quote]

Where was #3?

Why do you need all 3 at the same time, on your birthday?

Why aren't all the other days of the year good enough?

When someone says that have a bad birthday, it's not about the birthday. It's a reminder that they had a bad year. Focus on what you need to change that. [/quote]
