Hello Happy February!!!

February 3, 2019 By Coach Emile Therese

Hello, February!!!

To be honest, now and even (especially) when I was still single, I never celebrated Valentine’s. I always believed this was just a day created by Hallmark and other capitalists. That’s just my point of view. However, there’s no lack of celebrations in this month. In fact, it rains birthdays in our family! 🙂

My grandma (also read the article I wrote celebrating her here) is turning 95 (I think…) this month. Yay! My dad, husband, brother-in-law, cousin, cousin-in-law, 3 nieces and 1 nephew. My nephew’s birthday falls on Valentine’s. 🙂

Indeed, February is a happy month!

That said, let me go ahead and practice singing “Happy Birthday” with my toddler.

How about you? Is there a “popular birthday month” in your family? Which is it? How do you celebrate?
