...Jennifer - Happy belated birthday to your sister!<br /><br />Cynthia - Actually, I was really grateful when the "friend" birthday party (the types given by Mom, not the girls themselves) era was over for my girls. I realize now how much work that is!<br /><br />Leah - I have heard of quite a few late December marriages, too - interesting. If I don't remember later, Happy Birthday!<br /><br />Rusty - Yes, I think anything close to a month away from Christmas is pretty safe. Plus, it is possible to catch a few Christmas sales then, too.<br /><br />iow.research - It would be nice to take my birthday off, but you know, I don't think I have done that for the entire time I have been working. Never thought about that before....<br /><br />hummer - Thank you! I like the idea of the extended season (which, of course, is how the whole thing is celebrated in many places) - less letdown so that when it does wind up we are ready to resume "normal life."<br /><br />Cindy - We were baptized as a family the day before Epiphany, and our daughter's birthday is the next day, so that was a very special birthday year for her.<br /><br />Homestead Mommy - Isn't it nice when we come to understand the benefits we can get from those December birthdays?<br /><br />Nancy - Thank you for your birthday wishes - it was a great birthday - my husband gave me a new KitchenAid so that I can do my Christmas baking - one of my favorite gifts ever.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-36612445489210642622010-12-17T15:40:39.848-08:002010-12-17T15:40:39.848-08:00Happy Birthday a few days late!

It is funny that that is also your parent's anniversary as I actually know quite a few couples who were married that day and have spent more than a few birthdays over the years at weddings. I remember the first time it happened, I thought the cake and all the presents were for me, lol!Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12918752742296339994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-70911017658803669862010-12-15T11:19:41.534-08:002010-12-15T11:19:41.534-08:00Oh so cute!
