happy birthmonth to me

I'm so self-absorbed that I like to think that I can celebrate an entire month for my birth rather than just a day.

And so I will, each day of this month, breathe more deeply to take in the scent of Autumn, smile when I see trees changing colors, and be so happy to crunch crunch crunch through the leaves with my Belly girl each evening. Oh, and eat lots of apples and bake a few pies.

So what if it's 90 degrees out there right now?

Yesterday in class a bunch of students mentioned that they have October birthdays, so of course I say, "me too. Lots of people have October birthdays."

Student: You know why, right.

Me: Yup.

Student: Because it's nine months after the coldest month of the year.

Happy October birthdays to all.

My parents' wedding anniversary was August 1, is that why I was born the end of May? ;)

So much for being planned for, wanted, etc., etc.

We were all born in a moment of passion that had no conscience.

Ed is planning on the month-o-pampering as well. Interesting tactic.
