I noted that all my three girls were born on Tuesday mornings, and Juggling Mother said, "All mine were born on a Sunday ...." It put me in mind of an old nursery rhyme:
Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go;
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for its living;
But the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.
There you go, Juggling Mother! Your kids are the best of the lot!
I must have been born on a Saturday.

wouldn't you know i was born on a wednesday??? seriously, i just looked it up. woe. figures.
oh yeah. it's april 12, 1978. you need that information to be able to read the woe inherent in my birthdate.
SO am i to conclude that i'm a child of grace?.. tuesday december 2nd, 1980
hmmm, methinks they haven't seen my sabbath day children;-)
of course, Sunday isn't the sabbeth day for us *grin*. But it IS a good day for parking in the centre of bristol (where my kids were born), and for Aggie not being at work, so in that way it was a good day to be born (which is why I chose Sunday's for them all).
AND....
I've just looked up my birthday.
fair of face? you're having a laugh:-)
although I may actually be full of grace (excuse me while I pick myself up off the floor) - I have got to be the least co-ordinated person i know.
Ah well, I can imagine myself as a beautiful ballerina instead I guess:-)
