       Tomorrow is my first-borns 16th birthday. 3 days later it is Xmas Eve (that is when we celebrate Xmas in Sweden). 3 days after that it is my daughters 13th birthday. 4 days after that is New Years Eve. Any questions on why I find end of Dec somewhat stressful? 😬

       @mathiasCongratulations there!Where I live, on a person’s birthday, people congratulate their family members. I like the habit: after all, it deserves a recognition that one managed to survive all that time along the “birthday child” :-). Especially when the birthday child is a teenager 😄P.S.I see it’s not for nothing people say that May is the month of love 😉 .

       @mathias Also look at the upside: you don’t get stressed of buying presents several times a year. You can manage all that, together with all the Christmas in one go. I call that a win!
