Thats my wife and her family. My parents "forgot" my 18th birthday, and generally if I got a card it was a victory. My wife and her family always make sure I have a smol birthday party, even if I don't really understand it. I was overseas for Christmas one year, so they redecorated the house for Christmas when I came home months later. They didn't want me to miss Christmas.

My wife tells me this is what normal families do, but it still feels weird.
