#100daysofsgliving
The one real downside of living abroad is that you miss special occasions with family and friends at home. Today is my baby sister’s birthday and I’m missing out on all the celebration. Though it isn’t a big birthday – she didn’t turn 25 or anything like that but it’s still a birthday.
And we don’t need a special birthday to celebrate, we celebrate each birthday like a special one. Like on my 25th, she gave me one gift everyday till my actual birthday and then last year, she threw a surprise party for me. She always makes sure to pamper me to the core on my birthday.
So, I decided to make hers special this time within my limited capacity. Had I been there, I would have bought her a gift like always. So she was expecting some gift being delivered at our doorstep, but to her surprise, I made her a birthday video.
She was so overwhelmed with emotions that she almost got teary eyed. As they say, it’s not the gift but the thought that counts. 🙂
