On the first week of March, many
public libraries sponsor children's programs and have birthday parties in honor
of Dr. Seuss. My eldest granddaughter
celebrates her birthday the date after Dr. Seuss celebrates his.
Stakes and wards from around the
world will celebrate the anniversary of the Relief Society organization. Some have birthday parties complete with food
and programs, others offer workshops and uplifting instruction.
St. Patrick's Day is celebrated in
honor St. Patrick, as a holy day of obligation,
and a celebration of Ireland itself.
Easter jumps around landing in either March or April. This year it will be the last
Sunday in March.
Both of my brothers were born in
March. We would celebrate their
birthdays each month - often individually, but sometimes together. I remember one year we met at Patrick's house
when Corey happened to be in town performing.
Roland's daughters happened to be visiting that weekend, and we took
them with us.
Before the party started, I
mentioned that Frances also had a birthday coming up. Both of my brothers were happy to hear of it,
and attempted to take the attention of themselves and give it to Frances. That's actually all that I remember.
This year Ellen gave birth to her
oldest. He shares his birthday with my
brother (his grandfather)
Yesterday was my cousin, Michelle's
birthday.
Today Frances turns 22. Happy Birthday wherever you are.
