You mean I'm not the only one who thinks like that?
Sam: Birthdays can still be super fun without spending tons of money, or having tons of friends
1) In my family the birthday girl (or boy) gets to pick what they want for breakfast and supper, and a dessert. Ask your mom if she can make your favorite meal, it's not super hard usually, but if it's not something you eat every week, it makes it kind of special and fun. (it does help to pick the meal in advance though, so the ingredients are on hand!

2)For my birthday, which was just a couple of days ago, I didn't have a big party or anything, I slept in, which is always fun! My siblings kindly took over most of my chores for the day, and I talked to some long distance friends on the phone for a while. Then my mom and I went shopping for a bit, we didn't buy anything, just looked around and talked mostly.
Maybe you and your mom could go somewhere and just hang out for a few hours. It doesn't have to be expensive, it's just special.
3) Like AE said, get a movie from the library that you've wanted to see for a while, and make it a point to watch on your birthday. Movie nights are always fun!
