My wife was born on leap day. February 29 is a national holiday in my house. She has a fun time of it. She turned 20 on her 5th birthday. She was at six and a half birthdays when we got married. When we watched the world transition into the digital age, she couldn't find her birthday in a dropdown menu, but that's largely been fixed over time.
What it means, though, is she has four years to plan a birthday party, and we have no excuses. The first birthday we celebrated together, we threw a masquerade ball. The friend I asked to do music showed up with a band when I was expecting a stereo. It was awesome. Another year, she got a handful of free passes to a number of entertainment venues and we spent the day goofing off.
Fun in various degrees.
This time around, she wanted to do what we did last time. We went to an indoor water park. Great Wolf Lodge in Poconos PA. Same thing twice in a row, I asked? Well, last time we were there, we mused over how it was a good thing we were there when we were, because it sure looked like everything was about to close for awhile.
We had to go back to finish this game of Jumanji and put it all back in the board.
