I think it's your birthday today, Snuggles, and so I hope you're celebrating!

I didn't know anyone was born that close to Christmas. You should have told them you want wanted another day. Just kidding my oldest brother had 4 children. Two of the girls were born on Dec 26 and one boy on Dec 27.

HOPE YOUR BIRTHDAY HAS BEEN MARVELOUS. COOKING AND CLEANING ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THOSE DAYS.

An aunt of mine was born on December 25. Everyone always felt sorry for her because her birthday seemed to be overshadowed by Christmas.

I think my brother's family started having a day sometime after Christmas to celebrate the 3 birthdays at once. His oldest daughter was born on February 11th. My brother's birthday was February 10th. They usually celebrated theirs together. That left only his wife which was in March. Then they were through with birthdays for the year.

Thanks everyone for the good wishes! It was my birthday.

I always hated having my birthday so close to Christmas and to top it off my 2 sisters birthdays were December 8th and 11th! So lots of combined celebrations and parties growing up.

Having to learn to share at an early age is probably good in the long run, do you think?
