February babies have reason to celebrate. You share your birth month with Presidents George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Ronald Reagan. Your birthstone is the lovely Amethyst and your flowers are the violet and primrose. If you had lived during the Victorian era, a gift of violets meant that you’d always be true. Primroses signified that you couldn’t live without that wonderful other person in your life. Since Valentine’s Day comes this month, those flowers fit right in, don’t they?
Kindergarteners used to have a great time learning about Mr. Washington and Mr. Lincoln and coloring cherry trees, hatchets, and log cabins. Valentine’s Day generated as much excitement as Christmas.
This new month begins with ice over trees, rooftops, grass, and sidewalks. So, light the fireplace, brew a cup of coffee, and settle in with a good cozy mystery. This month, for all its celebrations, is a good month for hibernating too.
