On the way home from Bemidji this weekend we had a conversation about the old Mother Goose poem "Monday's Child" Here it is thanks to the internet, since none of us could remember it in the car:
Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go.
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
But the child born on the Sabbath Day,
Is fair and wise and good and gay.
I also looked up the year 1969 and found that I am Wednesday's child and therefore full of woe. Emma, Morgan and Nancy are all Friday's children, so they must make up for me being such a curmudgeon.

Hey, Pete:
We have one Wednesday's child...Alicia! (Not so full of woe!! & neither are you!) And, Aaron & Katie are both Friday's children. I'm curious about my day of the week...& Dale's.
Full of woe...yeah, that's you, all right...
