Did you ever wonder what it would be like to only have an official birthday once every four years? To me, that's quite a concept! Each of us takes the annual celebration of our birth for granted, as it comes around, every year on the same day, (duh) and we choose to celebrate, or try to ignore it. But for those rare souls who are born on February 29th, this is a monumentous occasion! Oh sure, February 29th babies grow older every year and progress through the daily trials and tribulations, but an actual birthday seems as rare as a tax rebate!
As my friend Henry Small celebrates his 16th birthday (or 64 in old man years!) I know he will be doing it up right on the wrong side of town! Kick up your heels my friend and enjoy the ride! Celebrate like it's 2016, 'cause you ain't gettin another one till then!
Thanks for the cake.
luv ya
