Alan's 1st Birthday Party - Dinosaur themed! |
I am not a parent yet, but it's a wonder to see how your friends change (for the better) when they become parents and start their own family. They disappear from their usual social circles for some time, but that is only because they are busy creating their own little universe at home. The first few years are fundamental in a child's life, so it is no small task. A year, since this little guy was born, there is a lot to be proud of and I am extremely happy to see them grow together!
On a side note...
Family is a concept that evolves all throughout our lives, but its core values never change. It is about caring, being there for each other and of coarse loving unconditionally. I also, don't think you have to be genetically related to feel like you are part of a family. Some of my friends feel like they are family to me, because I've known them for so long and their parents know me and my parents know them... It's a different level of understanding and it's worth celebrating.
I wish you all to have more of those warm family-like relationships in your life!
Cheers.
