....because it also happens to be my anniversary. Mr. Willoughby and I were married 21 years ago, on April 22, 1989. Honestly, at the time, I had never even heard of Earth Day, so we didn't choose the date for that reason. It is kind of nice, though, to think of people making the world a more beautiful place by planting trees and flowers on the anniversary of the day we began our life together. 100 years from now, after we're long gone, this day will still be celebrated. I think that's pretty special even if it is just a coincidence.

I share my birthday with the second atom bomb that was dropped on Japan in 1944, on Nagasaki. Also the day Nixon resigned, which was a year before I was born.
I'd rather share a special day with something cool, like Earth Day.
¡Viva la tierra!
Everyone makes a mark on the world and since you're a mom there's a good chance 100 years from now your descendants will be remembering you.
I do wonder what these blogs will become in 100 years.
Happy Anniversary!
I'm so glad that I had a second to read up on blogs for the first time in a couple weeks on YOUR anniversary!!
I hope that you are having a great day together!! : )
(And Happy Earth Day!) ;)
What a fortunate coincidence with the Earth Day! Every year, to celebrate together with millions of people a "clean" life on this planet. A great message.
