An Oregon mother’s unique birthday ritual for her four-year-old son has reached millions on Instagram.

A mother from Oregon devised a unique approach to capture some important moments as her son celebrates his birthday each year.

Emily Mesa, a 31-year-old work-from-home mom in Portland, has started a new birthday tradition that she intends to continue for her two sons, Leon, 4, and Jones, 2.

It appears to be such a terrific concept that social media users have expressed a desire to attempt it themselves rather than throw a big party.

“I don’t hate birthdays, but their birthdays have always really stressed me out, and so I think I was just trying to come up with something special that wouldn’t require so much work,” Mesa stated.
