Does it bother you to celebrate a birthday before the day, or do you think it’s unlucky.
The reason I ask is because my husband always says it’s bad luck, apparently many many years ago, his father went to a do to celebrated a friends birthday before the day, the friend was killed the next day. Since then he would never celebrate anything before the date and my husband has carried this on.
Well. It’s my son’s birthday soon, and my DIL has asked if I would throw him a bit of a do the weekend before, they cannot afford anything much, and he needs a treat. I’m more than happy to do this. But my husband says that it mustn’t be for his birthday, no decs or cake nothing todo with birthday just a get together.
I’m torn, is it ok to have a cake with candles, and balloons and toasts etc, or am I tempting fate.
What would you all do.
It can’t be the weekend after, things that can’t be cancelled so it’s before or not at all.
