Getting it started

My sister's birthday is in December (the 16th) and she's sort of
resented that fact. I've listened long and well over the years, and
I think I have her top 5 reasons December birthdays suck.

#5 You can't have an outside party at the beach. I have a June
birthday, and had plenty of those as a kid, so I heard her complain
about this for at least 16 years. Mom tried skating parties, but those
are cold & girls can't show off pretty dresses.

#4 Too many sweaters! Sweaters being a top holiday gift, as well as
top winter birthday gift, well, let's just say she has enough to wear
each sweater only one day of the winter fashion season.
