Christmas Birthday

If your birthday’s on Christmas, it must be a drag, For snow may be piled up in drifts But most likely, the reason your spirits will sag’s When you realize you’ve lost out on gifts. For those purchasing presents will figure just one Should suffice, though that just isn’t true And when Santa discovers your birthday stash there He might leave with no goodies for you. So for those with a birthday on 12/25, Here’s a bit of unasked-for advice: Have your party the week that precedes the big day And prepare to write thank-you cards twice!

Great advice Ilene I know people who do feel hey miss out by having Christmas and even Boxing Day birthdays - my birthday is a month after Christmas but we don't buy for buying sake and get our presents when we need them:-) Hope you had lovely celebrations at home:-) hugs Jan xx
