Almost a decade ago, for Christmas, I spent hours at home working late at night creating a calendar in HTML. I used it to embed pictures of the family members, record birthdays, anniversaries and many other events. Every month featured pictures of the family at the top. It took hours. I kept this secret from everyone, printing them at night, hiding the calendar pages at my work, and assembling them during my lunch hour. I started months before hand and they were a great success.
Ever since then my wife has made the calendars. Well, the next year on April 23th my wife turned to me, pointed to the calendar which had her birthday clearly marked and said, "You never wished me a Happy Birthday!"
I put my arms around my wife and whispered in her ear, "Love, April 23rd is the day I graduated from Riddle, your birthday is on the 26th."
"Oops," she replied.
So, be it the 23rd or the 26th (its the 26th), I want to wish my wife a wonderful Happy Birthday.
