Anyone know anyone born on February 29th?
How does that work? For legal reasons (driving, voting, minor status) I would guess that you still are considered to have aged each year but for other things how does that work? Celebrate on February 28th or March 1st?

Anyone?

9. My brother-in-law, too
Scott's going to be ten this Sunday. They do grow up so quick, don't they?
John
I think he celebrates on March 1, but he lives 1400 miles from here (in Fort Myers, FL) and sister Ang has to deal with it.

2. Almost
I am 2/28/64....a leap year! I was early too...and am glad. I don't think it would be "cool" having to wait four years for your "real birthday!"

And yes, I am going to be 40 tomorrow! :)

Greatest present ever...JanMichael (The World's Cutest Husband) did get the job in NC, and he will be here in an hour.

5. I grew up with a set of twins who were born on Feb 29th, and we would
assume they only had birthdays every four years.

By the time I was 12, they were 4.
