oh,this is a good topic.

My sister was born on Valentine's Day. I was born 4 years and 2 days later.

i always had a bit of resentment that she was born on a "special" day and I was not. I've never put much importance on Valentine's Day, since it's more my sister's Birthday, than a special romantic day. I also don't really like heart shaped things because she always got lots of them. *second child pouting*

so I married mr. Silver whose birthday is exactly 7 days (although almost two years older) prior to mine. then my sister married a guy whose birthday is on the 6th of Feb.

so our collective birthdays are February 6, 9, 14, 16.

My kids are born 3 days short of three years apart. September 13, 1990 and September 9, 1993. silverson's birthday ends up being 9/9/93. So he turned 6 on 9/9/99. I made a cake for him the was a 6 turned one way and a 9 turned upside down. He was also born in Room 9 at the hospital at 8:09 am.

My nephew was born on 12/31/99, last day of the millenium.
