Christmas Birthdays

True story. It happened to a friend of a friend of mine...

Actually my parents told me this story from the weekend and it was just so lovely I had to post it.

Picture a small 6yr old talking to her mother.

6yr: Mum, What's the name of that man you were telling me about? The one who's having his birthday soon?

Mum: Jesus.

6yr: Oh yeah. He must be the luckiest man in the world - imagine having your birthday on Christmas Day!

Too cute. I told this story to a man I work with who has his birthday on Christmas Day (which I think explains a lot about him, especially the bitterness...) - his response was along the lines of: "Ha. Lucky. Yes."

In other birthday related news, mine is this Friday - woot!
