On Her Birthday

My nephew and my mother.

 He is NINE today.  She would have been SIXTY-NINE.   

When I jokingly told her, right after he was born, that it bothered me he had stolen her day, she smiled and said "my birthday is not important anymore, now it is all about him".  Now it sounds like a prophecy.  She never got to share her day with him.

But she was right!  It has helped to be able to celebrate his birthday on hers.

Happy 9th Birthday Andres!  You chose a very special day to be born in.
