It's my party and...

Something that we as a family never miss is the birthday of each member , of which there are quite a few of us, so the celebrations are constant.

The phrase It's my party is something that makes us prepare to share, normally several of us get together and contribute money for the gift or we simply give the money in an envelope, generally it is what we do the most, many of us prefer it since we can choose ourselves what to buy.

In the photo, you can see a bracelet. I bought it about two years ago when I received money for my birthday in an envelope—we call it a "envelope shower". and it's actually a common tradition at many celebrations here in Colombia. I prefer this to worrying about what to give as a gift.

The next celebration is the birthday of one of my cousins' daughters; she's turning three. We'll give her money in envelopes, but we each want to contribute a little so we can add up the total. Our goal is to raise about four million Colombian pesos. The idea is to buy her clothes, shoes, and everything else she might need. Kids grow up so fast! This is the idea my mother suggested, and we all agree.
