58. That's exactly what my grandparents said!!!

Aug 2014

For years they tried to keep up with birthdays and Christmas... everyone got money except for the under 10-year-olds, and they sent money to the parents and they bought the present.

Don't think the ones with birthdays in other months got any different. My grandfather was adamant about not making any difference.

We've always thought all these birthdays in the same month were really strange!!!!
