We then sing "Happy Birthday" after dinner. It gets kinda aweful when it's my mom's birthday, since she's the one with the best singing skills, and she can't sing to herself. So. . . we end up sounding like our cats being strangled. :-) </p> We always let the birthday person pick what we have for dinner, and then pick a dessert. We then sing “Happy Birthday” after dinner.

It's become an indespencible part of our family tradition. I think it started with my grandmother doing it to my mom and siblings to keep them from pouting when only one of them was getting all the stuff. I guess mom did the same thing to us to keep us from pouting too. Oh well, we like it...even the big kids. we have this thing where, on one of us kids birthdays, all the kids get a small present (and then the birthday person gets a bunch…).

At someone's birthday, we'll all sit around the table at dinner or something and tell funny, serious, or sweet stories about the person whose birthday it is. You can get a lot of tears or a lot of laughs. :-) Well, this tradition isn’t exactly funny, but it’s really fun.
