slo’s MONDAY 12/2 poll - December Birthday 🥳

[slo]

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend - I definitely did

It’s the time of year to say Happy Holidays along with Happy Birthday to some of our DIS friends, which is fun and not fun for some. My DH’s birthday is the 28th and he has always felt like his birthday was overlooked (mostly when he was a child). His gifts, from many, were for Christmas and his birthday, he never had anything special at school since his birthday was on holiday break and so on. I always make sure his birthday is special and its own special day. So tell us today……

Do you have a December birthday?
If yes……when?
(Multiple-choice)

* BONUS for those with a Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa birthday
* If your birthday falls on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa please post how you feel about that. Have you ever felt slighted because your birthday is on a holiday? Let us know.

A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all our December DIS friends



For Me……No December birthday for me - I’m an October birthday gal.

My DH’s birthday is the 28th and he has always felt like his birthday was overlooked (mostly when he was a child). His gifts, from many, were for Christmas and his birthday, he never had anything special at school since his birthday was on holiday break and so on. I always make sure his birthday is special and its own special day.

We're in a similar situation here. My DH's is not far before Christmas, and he had the same feelings as a kid. I slip extra cards in the mail pile (from me, from the cats...whatever I can think of) so that his birthday display looks as good as mine and DS's do in other months.

My birthday is on Christmas Day. I've always hated my birthday in the past. I was definitely slighted as a kid. The best my mom could do was to buy a birthday cake. I didn't even get any extra birthday presents.

But now that I don't care anymore, I find it fun.

I don’t have a December birthday, but my DGranddaughter’s birthday is Christmas Eve.

 

[Kitty 34]

My youngest sister was born on Christmas Eve. She will be 63!

Happy December birthday to those of you celebrating and a joyous month to all.

I don’t have a December birthday but I do know a few people who do and my grandfather was born on Christmas my ex brother-in-law was too my ex had a December birthday and I can safely say that I know all of them always felt that they got slighted for their birthdays it was so this is your birthday and Christmas present and that’s just not right
My DD as a January birthday and people did the same thing to her and that’s not right either
If you don’t do it to somebody with a June birthday why would you do it to somebody with a birthday around Christmas??? It’s not fair and it’s not right just my opinion

A very Merry and Happy Birthday to all December Peeps !!!

My sister's is the 8th of December. I don't celebrate until February.

I don't, but my oldest DS does, mid-Dec. He was due on Dec 7, Pearl Harbor day, but he was over a week late, thank goodness! I was in college and had to finish my finals that week. he'll be 35! He's been here visiting for Thanksgiving, with his new girlfriend, and glad we've been able to spend time together.
Happy birthday to the December birthday folks!!

My birthday is not in December, and no one in my immediate family has a December birthday... but we have four extended family members with birthdays between 12/22 and 1/7. It's a busy couple of weeks!

 

[E&Cmom]

It is my birthday month! My birthday is on Friday the 6th.

 

[RedAngie]

Sorry, December babies.

 

[RedAngie]

Older DD turns 35 on December 17.

Other December birthdays:
Cousin
Aunt (Blood uncle’s wife)
Uncle (Blood aunt’s husband-deceased)
All December 19

Grandfather, deceased, December 20

Cousin-December 22

Years ago we’d gather on a weekend closest to those dates and have a combined celebration. All the names would be on a sheet cake with red or green writing icing from those tubes.

 

[Meriweather]

None in the immediate family.

A cousin is a Christmas baby. I always wrapped her present half Christmas, half birthday.
SIL is the 6th.
