Lucky Day

clover_mikeSo, today is a very special day to me.

Today I am Irish, like the rest of the planet. There’s absolutely nothing else of note that is going on in my family today March 17th 2009.

No Siree Bob.

::whistle innocently::

Mum’s the word. Don’t try to make me talk, it will just not work I tell ya. Well. Maybe after the fold?

You know you wanna look now, right? ;-)

All right, all right, I’ll tell you. ;-)

Pretty much like Chrissy Snow and Jesus who have to share their birthday with Christmas, my mom has to share her birthday with the birth of the four leaf clover.

Over the years, I don’t know how many times I’ve been told I look just like my mom. Personally, I didn’t see it at first, but now that I’m a little older, it’s fairly obvious. Can you tell who is who in the following pictures? I can, but I have a keen sense of observation.

notmom

mom

Once you see it, it’s pretty obvious, right?

On a more serious note, my mom turns 58 fifty-something fifty-ish not sixty one year older today. So please, wish her a happy birthday in the comments, tell her how awesome of a job she did raising the fine young man that my brother is (I also have an awesome sister but I can’t seem to find, a way to insert her in a joke), send her virtual flowers, do a little dance. 

Happy Birthday mom. ;-)

As for me, I’m getting another Guiness.

    Ummm, it’s not just Jesus and Chrissy Snow that have to share their birthday with Christmas – you forgot me, your favourite defunct blogger =P

    But happy birthday to your Mom – I can symapthize with her on how hard it is to have your birthday on a day when everyone is celebrating something other than the miracle of your birth… ;)

    suze recently blogged so, here’s the thing…

  10. LeSombre's mom says:

    Hi and thanks everyone.
    As for the ressemblance it’s undeniable as you all can see.
    As for Avitable’s comment I’ve never, in my 58 years, been invited that upfront. My only problem is that I don’t know who you refer to because my son and I are so much alike. Wonder who would be surprised you or us. All depends.
    Happy St Patrick’s day.

    Le Sombre’s mom.

  11. LeSombre says:

    Thanks to everyone who made my mom’s birthday better by leaving a comment!

    And yes, LeSombre’s Mom is really my mother commenting on a blog for the first time ever.

    Oh and @Avitable: I gave her your address. ;-)

  12. Avitable says:

    And now I’ll be too embarrassed to ever step foot into Canada.

  13. LeSombre says:

    @Avitable: She actually thought that your comment was very funny. I don’t think you should be embarrassed. Plus, I don’t know if you noticed, but Canada is a big place. ;-)

  14. Avitable? Embarrassed? Never saw that one comin’.
