Today Was Your Birthday

Today was your birthday
And your family forgot!
You thought they would remember
But they did not!

Today was your special day
And you looked forward to hearing
All of the good birthday wishes
And perhaps a bit of cheering!

You remembered all of their birthdays
And made each one a special card
And now you feel a bit let down
Surely it would not have been too hard...

A simple little telephone call
Or even a note it could have been-
A little boquet from the florist
Or some simple trinket they could send...

But you didn't hear from them
And now you are feeling a bit blue
You say it's not fair but don't dispair
They will remember before the week is through!

Be gracious when they remember
And treat it as a simple lapse of memory
And show them the love and forgiveness
That goes along with being family!

Christmas Birthday -Sister

Christmas Birthday
What a wonderful day
To have a birthday!
It is very special indeed
I wish you joy and happiness
And that in everything you succeed!
Everyone around you will be celebrating
And sharing in the fun of the season
But in your heart you will enjoy knowing
That you have another special reason!
Thena

There's something so special
About being born on Christmas Day
It's so unique and wonderful
That the day choosen to celbrate Jesus's birth
Is the very day that you came into our lives
As the sweetest sister on earth!
Thena

All sisters are wonderful
And each one celebrates their birth
In their own special way.
But how exciting it must be
To see the whole world glowing bright
As they celebrate Christmas
And enjoy each lovely sight.
And just one more perk of this date
So that you will never regret it
Once you tell someone the date
They will never forget it!
