I felt so bad this morning because when I was getting ready, for some reason I was thinking to myself about how old R will be in February. I thought he was 23 now but then that didn’t make sense that he would be turning 24 when you just turned 26. Then I couldn’t think if J was going to be 25 or what in March. So, I had to subtract 2009 from 1984 and 1986 to figure out how old they were going to be. That’s pretty bad when you can’t remember the exact age of 2 out of 3 of your kids. Sheesh. Love you, baby doll!

Not only can my mother not remember how old I am (or what year I was born in) but she never calls to wish me a Happy Birthday until 3-4 days after. My friends and I have a running bet every year about how long it will be before she calls, it’s win-win, I get drinks out of the deal :)

My mom knows my birthday, for sure… it’s the current year she has trouble with. LOL!
2 out of 3 ain’t bad at all…

LOL. Sounds like you’re on the same birthday schedule I am. I was born August 1982, my one sister was born October 1984 and my two youngest sisters were born May 1986. If that’s the case, mom just needs to remember that the birthdays will be odd in odd years (i.e. 27, 25 & 23 in 2009 — boy my sisters are getting old!) and even in even years (i.e., 26, 24 & 22 in 2008)
