Probably, to have a child is life-transforming. There will be limitations like they used to be. Just like going home late at night, going to a party, or meeting with friends anytime, and many more; Truly, it wouldn't be possible anymore. There's now a child waiting always or needs to be watched over 24/7. Obviously, it's not an easy life compared to someone who has been single.

For some, it could be the hardest in life but for some it's the greatest of life. Though, a loving mother will always overcome the new life she is now facing. It doesn't happen immediately like blinking an eye but time will come. Every mom should not misunderstand that in every chapter of life there's a process. Compare it when a child finally learns to walk, it crawls at first struggling to go in a certain place.

Also, raising a child is not that easy. Working hard is not enough, one must work the hardest because there's another mouth to feed. However, despite the exhaustion and desperation; A child can be a medicine for a parent. It can relieve all the fatigue, anxiety or everything that's worrying inside.

Then the parent's first step of happiness is when their child reaches the age of 1 year old. Celebrating the first day despite the hardships and shortcomings in life is not luxurious. It's a way of treating the parents' reward from their child. Tomorrow might be, no, after the day of celebration might empty the pocket. It's okay because it's very fulfilling to celebrate the child's first birthday with families and friends.

Getting a photographer might be pricey as well. Well, it's okay because it might be a documentary seeing the child growing up. Keep in mind that money is not valued when it comes to someone's happiness. That's why we work to have a special occasion celebrated the way we wanted.

So yeah, a birthday should be happy. For a short time, forget the expenses and focus on what's in front that it's the root of happiness.
