As my birthday falls on the Republic Day of my country, I did not have the time to celebrate with my family first thing in the morning.

× Usually I would be performing in singing or dancing or even leading a parade, so it was a busy but.
✓ Usually I would be performing in singing or dancing or even leading a parade, so it was busy.
The sentence ends abruptly with 'so it was a busy but' which is incomplete and incorrect. The word 'but' is unnecessary and causes sentence structure error. Removing 'but' completes the sentence properly.
× Yes, as a believer and a theist, I find birthdays an important part of your life.
✓ Yes, as a believer and a theist, I find birthdays an important part of my life.
The pronoun 'your' is incorrect here because the speaker is talking about their own life, so 'my' should be used instead to maintain correct pronoun reference.
× Belonging the child is an important aspect to the parents.
✓ Belonging to the child is an important aspect for the parents.
The verb 'belonging' requires the preposition 'to' to indicate possession or association. Also, 'aspect to the parents' should be 'aspect for the parents' to correctly express the relationship.
