Golden Birthday

Forrest turned 18 on April 18, which is apparently called the Golden Birthday. I had never heard this term until we moved to Asia.

With Anna around (our helper), every birthday feels like a Golden Birthday. At the very least, every birthday feels like we're living with Elf. On the morning of each person's birthday, this is what we all receive. And, she doesn't save any of this, so every person gets a very unique surprise.




All of those little slips of paper have character qualities for Forrest.

In HK, a person becomes an adult at 18 and can legally consume alcohol and drive. Because Forrest is a rule-follower he was waiting (not to drive). Jeff had a "guys" dinner planned on his birthday to bring him into the fold, so to speak. 




One of my all-time favorites of the gang from 2009. He's still their leader:)
