Birthdays

Christmas time is a celebration of the birth of Jesus. Ordinary people that have birthdays at this time of the year get to bask in his reflected glory a bit. My Aunt Florence was born on the 24th, niece Faith on the 25th, daughter Kim on the 18th, son Chris on the 19th and Mom on the 20th. I do not know how they feel about having a birthday at this time of the year but hope they enjoy all the festivities and the addition of birthday excitement too. Mom turns 95 this week. That is quite a milestone to achieve. She is in good health, still lives alone, drives her own car, and takes care to eat healthy meals. She is a fine example to us all and so fortunate to be healthy and able to get about. To all I wish each a wonderful and a very happy birthday.
