We had a choice of the 6th or 7th of January. We chose the 7th because my mother in law was arriving from Germany on the 6th to help. But the point of this comment is we got the date we really wanted, the 100th anniversary day of my grandmother's birth. (A tax deduction in the prior year would have been nice too, but that ship sailed as we waited for labor to begin into the new year). If we had waited to the 8th, it would have been Elvis' birthday (and my niece's and sister-in-law's). Given that Kathryn's middle name is Renate -- German for the latin word for "reborn" -- it was fitting that she be born on my grandmother's birthday. I hope she is able to channel some of my grandmother in her life! I think she is happy to have been born on an ancestor's birthday -- being a Capricorn seems to suit her too.Profferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14773819293234952884noreply@blogger.com
