    Therefore I do not know their ages.

    Is it just me?

    Haha. I had to tell someone my mother's birth date recently for security verification. I said the date slowly like I was casually answering, you know, no big deal, but inside I was thinking, "Oh my God! Is that the date? What if I'm wrong? He'll think I'm a fraud or at least some kind of idiot!"

    I have a terrible time remembering Birthdays. Have to keep them in a notebook or I would be lost.

    Recently I was in Walmart with three of my kids. Turned around and there was my mother and father (both jws). My mother said to my kids "Did you know your grandfather just had a birthday?!" Wth are my kids supposed to say to that? Happy birthday? Yeah right. I watched my kids faces with mild amusement because I know they know my parents don't celebrate birthdays and have never acknowledged the birthdays of their only grandkids. My kids were nice about it. Didn't say "Happy Birthday" tho'.

    Amazingly I did know my immediate family's birthdays, but growing up I never knew bdays of aunts and uncles cousins. Since I have Power of Attorney over my aunt, I knew she was going to turn 100 this year didn't know when, and btw how I found out was that her neighbor who she's very close too told me, but my attorney told me the exact date.
