One Day a Year

Today is my birthday

and it is so nice to be recognized,

the very special day that comes once ayear

that everyone who cares about you

sends cards

gives gifts

spends quality time with you

calls and texts to say ‘Happy Birthday’

does creative special projects

It is so wonderful to be reminded that people care about you!

But the best thing about today

is that I get to share the day with my lovely twin sister.

Today is the one day a year that everyone recognizes me,

but everyday I feel so special to have a sister like her!

So today is not only my birthday,

but our birthday

And that

is what makes it even all the more special.
