TranscriptA tweet by Ivanka Trump @ivankatrump saying "I cannot believe that Theodore is eight months old today! Happy birthday little teddy bear!" with an admittedly cute picture of a child smiling. It has a reply from @blacknmild saying "this isn't how birthdays work"

Honestly? Yeah. I feel slightly bad for some of the earlier childhood years (under 13 or so) that don't get one. Otherwise, 100% agreement.

My wife, who tends to try to milk her entire "birthday month", would disagree. A "birthday month" is whichever is most convenient from: the month leading up to, calendar month of, or month leading after her actual birthday.
