I wonder what a birthday party for Jesus looked like when he was a boy in Nazareth. Did he wear a funny hat? Was there a traditional Jewish birthday song sung? Was cake served? I could not find much on the www that addressed this issue. In fact, most of what I was able to find condemned birthday celebrations for Christians. Several sources recorded early birthday celebrations as pagan rituals, most certainly not the types of festivals that Jesus' family would recognize.
I have no idea where this is going. I was just thinking this morning about Jesus birthday, and these thoughts ran through my mind.
