Most of you don’t get to experience the fun of sharing a birthday with someone you know. I know, it seems like no big deal. That’s what I thought. Until I met Mia*. She and I are very close, and we share a birthday. We make cards for each other, make homemade gifts, and say funny things like, “5 days left… What, what!” I love knowing someone who shares my birthday. Eleven years ago, two little girls were born on October 7. On opposite sides of the country, neither knew how close they would come to be in a mere 8 years.
