How old are you?

Some very interesting things have been going on here this February vacation. Aside from Nate playing PS3 basically all day long, we have been reading interesting things. I recently bought a book for the family, The Encyclopedia of Immaturity . It is quite interesting with things like, "How to Build a Plastic Spoon Catapult" and "Top Ten Facts of All Time" and then the "Are You Getting All the Birthdays You Deserve?"....which is what I wanted to talk about.

Did you know that when you are 2 years, 8 months and 27 days old your are actually 1000 days old? And if you are 5 years, 5 months and 23 days old you are 2000 days old. So on and so forth.... It just so happens that out of the 8 kids between my sister and I, 6 of them are celebrating thousand day birthdays this year (wow).

In March Breanne will be 3000 days old, Kaylee will be 1000 days old and Nate will be 5000 days old (seems so oooollllddd). In April Devyn will be 2000 days old , in May Tommy will be 4000 days old and in August Abby will be 2000 days old. What a huge coincidence that in the year 2009 most of our kids would have these "special birthdays".

It was fun to figure this out and will be even more fun when these "birthdays" roll around. Yippee, another reason to celebrate!
