@Jordan2    Let me tell you what happened on my birthday which was last month.  I was a little down in the dumps because, like you, only one person wished me a happy birthday, my sister.

It was a Friday, my car had been in a body shop most of the week having some repair work done.  The called me about 4pm to say it was ready and they were sending someone to pick me up.  This lovely very young man arrived and we drove to the shop.  He asked me how my day was going and I told him it was my birthday and I'd been sitting a!one at home all day.  We had a nice conversation.

Got the car and drove back home.  About an hour later, the doorbell rang and there was my young man and another mechanic standing there with a small birthday cake in their hands.  I couldn't believe it.  Nothing like that ever happened to me before.  First birthday cake I've had for years and years.  It was so sweet of them,dont you agree?

I don't want you to be forgotten so, happy birthday to you!

Oh my goodness! What a lovely thing for them to do.  This was just a great story.

I am not a fan of my birthday either. I didn't feel like it was very "special" even as a kid. I remember 1 birthday when I was 9 that was great--so just another day for me---

but happy birthday !!

I totally agree with you and also feel your pain. I miss my Mom too, the most on my Birthday. She would always be the first one to call me on my day as she planned it that way. And her card would always arrive right on my day! 

   So please know you are not alone and I hope you can feel her around you today.

Thank you all for the birthday wishes I appreciate you all taking the time to respond to my post. I love reading all the stories most of them made me cry. I have the last picture taken of my mom shortly before she passed in a frame, it sits on a table in my living room. In the picture she's smiling, I love thinking of her that way.

and all other July birthdays

@Jordan2 

Enjoy your day try not to dwell on your sadness of missing your mom.

Both my parents died in my younger years but I cherish the fun special bdays I enjoyed while they were with me.

She certainly wouldn't want you to be joyless on such a special day so try to enjoy the memories you were able to share with her.

@Jordan2 : Totally agree and understand. I was 22 when my Mom died and I didn't remember my dad because I was 22 months old when he died.

Try your best to cherish your precious memories.🤗♥️🙏

I am with you my Dear!  I lost my mother (whom wasn't much  a mother after I was about 7) on my 16 th  birthday, but she didn't have custody of my sister and I.  I don't even remember her voice.

@Jordan2   I am so sorry on the loss of your mother.

Happy birthday and I wish you peace.
