Today is not an easy day. Today is my youngest daughter's birthday.
18 years ago, she appeared on the same hot sunny day as today.
My wife and I wanted to call her Dasha, but our daughter Masha said we shouldn't call her that. She suggested giving our daughter my name, i.e., Sasha.
And so Alexandra Alexandrovna appeared in our family.
They say that the youngest child gets the most parental love.
I don't agree with this; it's just that as parents get older, they have more finances than they did when they were young. And that is why it may seem that the younger child is more loved than the older ones. Of course, our older children didn't have the kind of toys Sasha had, especially since the older brother and sister also gave a lot of gifts to the younger sister.
This is not a birthday bouquet. Last Sunday, Sasha and I went for a walk. We haven't walked like this in a long time. And we had a great walk. Sasha might be tired, but she didn't show it.
It was a hot day, but Sasha did not think that the Sun would warm up the air much and put on a warm sweatshirt. But she didn't take it off
Sasha goes to work tomorrow morning. We haven't seen her yet today either. We have prepared a gift for her. Two weeks ago, she said that within a year she would save up money and buy a new iPhone. Yesterday, my wife and I decided that we would give an iPhone 17 as a birthday present. Yes, Sasha is in Kirov today, and the gift is at home waiting for her.
Friends, goodbye! Until the next walk.
