When she was little, my daughter, Beth, thought it was pretty special that she always got her birthday - February 12th - off school. She was the only one in the family lucky enough to have a birth day for their birthday though. Martin Luther King was killed on my birthday - April 4th. My son, Jamie, was born on November 22nd - the day John F Kennedy was shot. And his sons, my Ayden and Bryant, were born on April 15th - the day Abraham Lincoln died.
"Anybody here ... " remember that old song, "Abraham Martin and John?
Dawn: that is amazing. Do you think the birthdays as such had any negative impact on them?
Why does Lincoln still matter?
