Good morning all you August people (and everyone else). If you have an August birthday, you were born in an interesting month–a month with a history. To start with, it was once called Sextilis and was the sixth month. Then, along came powerful Augustus Caesar. It was renamed August in the year 8 B.C.
The lovely Peridot is your birth stone and you have two flowers: the poppy and the gladiolus. In the language of flowers, these mean beauty, strength of character, love and family. You can’t go wrong with these! Come to think of it, these attributes pretty well describe the people I know who were born this month.
This August morning is dawning cool and quiet, a pretty morning. I hope the day is a good one for you and if you’re one of those lucky ones with an August birthday, Happy Birthday!
Muggy over here with possible thunderstorms later on. Nice Caesar sketch. Pretty gladiolus.
Thanks, Morgan. Doing Caesar was fun.
