Half Birthdays: 02/27/07
My childrens' birthdays bookend mine. Sean's birthday comes first, then mine and finally Harriet's. We're all a week apart (more or less). Sean is old enough now to care about half birthdays. They are as exciting and monumental as full birthdays.

Sean's enthusiasm for his half birthday has rubbed off on me. It's been years since I've felt glee over hitting my half birthday but this year I just couldn't resist. This morning Sean wished me a happy thirty-three and a half birthday and said next week would be Harriet's first half birthday. It's hard to believe she will be six months old next week!
