they say it's my birthday!

don't you love random weird traditions that you remember from growing up?

one of my favs is one that probably was never intended to be a tradition, but alas it is. I don't recall exactly when this started but i know i was probably in upper elementary school or so and the rest is history!

it was my birthday party and my dad and stepmom came down the stairs with a birthday cake lit and they were singing "They say it's your birthday...." by the Beatles (you know that song right?!). I'm pretty sure i thought they were insane, but I loved it anyway and since then, a birthday is not complete w/o hearing that song or serenading someone w/ it!

this year my dad sent me a youtube of a version i had never seen before which i thought was pretty cool. i watched it and danced w/ my daughter and teared up! isn't it funny how those little things trigger such memories?!



the BEST bday present! *wub*
