A cold long winter

Late December and early January must be excellent baby making weather. How do I know?  Let me count the birthdays this month.

It kicks off on September 2 with my friend Marie's birthday.  This is followed quickly by Charla's birthday on the 3rd.  Shelley comes along next on the 7th (Happy 40th!).  I stumble into the picture on the 11th still somewhat dazed from the birthday changing events of 2001.  My mom's birthday is today, the 14th (to which I've heard a million times how I should have been born on her birthday, but my OCD about arriving early to events apparently is in my DNA).  My mom's BFF, and my godmother, Helen's birthday is tomorrow, the 15th.  Rhonda and Stella give us a two-for-one combo on the 19th (also known as International Talk Like a Pirate Day). Rounding out my collection of friends is Susan's birthday on the 22nd. 

Maybe this is one reason I like September so much: many opportunities to celebrate, enjoy lunches out, and lots of laughter. 

Happy birthday beautiful women of September.  Let's do it again next year.

  1. I think I will move mine to September. How about the 31st? For some reason, it appears to be fully open. Just like the old poem starts: "Thirty-one days has September, all the rest I can't remember ---"
