I'm not sure I would be happy about that, but she LOVED it. They also share their birthday with my dad's sister and my mom's grandma! My mom's mom and dad's mom are each one week before and after! Needless to say, January is a crazy birthday month in my family.<br /><br />However, I think a son is quite a generous birthday present! ;)Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01338896212556894322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-1653659040950355632010-04-07T09:55:20.084+07:002010-04-07T09:55:20.084+07:00Chris, do you think giving him a son makes it even...Chris, do you think giving him a son makes it even for the stonking ring?<br /><br />Lily, *laughing* Good idea.

Their birthdays are in July so every year we have a family BBQ for them. My daughter's boyfriend's birthday is the day before my husband's so now he's one of the BBQ birthdays too. <br />My mother was born on 24th December and married on 22nd December, so that's a busy month too for presents.<br />But I think a baby is the best present you could have given him.Leigh Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15080517449825380527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-57944248222244048432010-04-07T03:02:04.515+07:002010-04-07T03:02:04.515+07:00Oh dear.

I'm sure you'll find something for him (although he did come up with that stonking ring for you... no pressure, btw).

They've already bought something for me - women are always so much easier to buy for, or is it just that we like more things - on 9th. <br /><br />What a pain for them to have to think of both parents' presents so close together. Good luck with your shopping.Deborah Carr (Debs)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03223653554549707595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-12857163320159759962010-04-06T12:59:10.747+07:002010-04-06T12:59:10.747+07:00My sister was born in the evening of the day befor...My sister was born in the evening of the day before my father's birthday.
