Being a kid, birthdays are all about parties, balloons, cakes, etc. We would get excited with the thought that someone we know is having their birthday. It doesn’t matter who the birthday celebrants are, as long as there is food and party accessories, no problem at all. But as we get older, everything becomes different. Birthdays no longer mean parties with clowns and balloons, but a very special one that has to be celebrated with friends and love ones. As long as we are with the people close to our hearts, it will be the best birthday ever. So, missing a special moment of someone close to you is the hardest thing to compensate. But you can make it easier by sending some heartfelt belated birthday wishes.
