Nothing.wrong.with.december.birthdays

This is an FYI post for y'all......THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH DECEMBER BIRTHDAYS!!! In fact, I like them. Not that I have a choice since BOTH of my children were born in this month. Kendall decided I'd had enough to eat on Christmas so she wanted to join in on the fun and be born the day after Christmas. I can't blame her. But whenever I tell someone her birthday they feel the need to respond with "oh no that sucks". Really? Why? She gets just as many presents. And I don't wrap her birthday gifts with Christmas paper. We don't even put her birthday gifts under the tree - and she usually WANTS them there. Brenym's due date was like the day before Christmas and one ultrasound even said Kendall's birthday - thankfully he came earlier and I was well rested for Christmas day and Kendall's day. These kids will never know any different and I LOVE that when Christmas decorations come out - Kendall says "ooh it's almost my birthday." The only way she'll think it's a rim job is if ADULTS keep commenting that it sucks. And I'm sorry - if I told someone my birthday and they responded with "that blows".....I'd be sad. I don't want my kids sad. So they don't get a boatload of gifts at two separate times a year - big deal. I will say there is WAY MORE SELECTION of toys in December and as a parent ~ that is awesome. The only people you should feel bad for with children that have December birthdays is the parents - because man oh man is it expensive!!! So - if someone tells you their birthday and it's in December - respond with "that's a perfect day".....or be stabbed in your eye....
