At 5 birthdays
are cake and ice cream … and PRESENTS!
At 16, 18, and
21 birthdays are a legal right of passage … and BIG PRESENTS!
At 30 birthdays remind
you that youth is fleeting … and no one can afford your presents!
At 40 birthdays tell
you to “Seize the Day!” … and money couldn’t buy your presents.
At 50 life is
good, but for the “Sandwich Generation” a day without parents or teens would be
a present.
At 60 the stairs
seem steeper and you’re out of breath, but your grandkids make you great
presents.
And at 62 … acceptance
has made you content … at least for the present.
