Hello friends! It's been a while.. Life got a bit busy.
So this week was my eldest sister's birthday. She has been going through a very difficult time and felt like her birthday is just in the way.
We, as a family, deem birthdays quite important as it is a celebration of life and a time to be together.
She was home alone, as her husband was away for work, and we thought that just would not do. We spoke to her finding out what she wanted to do, which was nothing,yet we convinced her to go out for a family dinner.
My middle sister and I decided to surprise her and make her feel extra special by buying her some balloons. (I believe balloons make any situation better!) 😉
The balloons we made up for her, her present was in the basket
When we walked into the restaurant she just blushed and smiled. She said it was embarrassing but despite that, she loved it! Other than the balloons to make it special, we gave her original perfume, since she mainly uses knock-offs due to the extreme price of perfume in RSA. She was ecstatic and so incredibly grateful!
In the end, after great pizza and 2 bottles of wine, we had a great night and she enjoyed her birthday to the fullest!
She can never be normal
I love my sister so much and seeing her happy made me feel like all the efforts are worth it!
Letting the people in your life know you love them is one of the most important things you can do.
Until next time!
