Well to be completely honest, I was born on Christmas Eve, so after a while, it would probably just evolve into an advent calendar or something. I'd love to do it, I just don't know, if it would turn out weird by the end. I've always felt weird about my birthday and Christmas being the same thing in my family. Maybe because I was much younger than most of my extended family at the time, unless that one cousin who's 2.5 years younger than me and her parents showed up, which didn't always happen. Otherwise, I'd feel incredibly left out, and like it wasn't about me, even a little bit. Maybe, this is weird, but I think, that every kid deserves to feel like the main character for that one day, if you know, what I mean. And a lot of times that wasn't the case for me. Later it also made it incredibly difficult for me to throw birthday parties, because all my friends were prepping for Christmas before, and New Year's Eve after, and visiting family, and stuff.

Sorry for dumping all of this on your Birthday thread, I didn't plan for this whole monologue, it just came out. I'll delete it if you want me to.

What! No don't feel bad about sharing your feelings!
I don't mind at all!

And I totally understand where you are coming from on the birthday on / near a major holiday!
My sister mlpc was born November 28th so often times her birthday and Thanksgiving would overlap and she would feel disappointed because everyone would be cooking and not have time to spend with her!
If you'd like I'd be more than happy to wish you a merry birthday! And honestly an advent calendar/Birthday Countdown sounds like so much fun!
So don't worry whatever you decide I'm sure we on mlptp will support you!

(Sorry about the dumb joke, couldn't help it, you've probably already heard it) xp

But please don't be upset that you have feelings, I'm always happy to listen!

.u~u.
