When I was growing up, my middle brother used to say that, as a newborn, I had been left at our house's doorsteps in a box, along with two baby parrots. They had chosen to keep me, he said, because they mistakenly thought I wouldn't be as noisy as the parrots...
That's my dear brother's sense of humor.
Anyway, if that were really true,and if parrots lived that long, they'd be celebrating their birthday today, with me.

Happy Birth day Lu.Be blessed, you have wonderful brothers.
Lu,
Often, small children feel hurt by such sense of humor. I was. But we grow older and look back fondly about it. Different cultures, different languages, but we share similar scenes.
Thanks, Dr. J! Yes, they are very nice men. I'm very proud of them.
Oh, I never felt hurt by that. I' d answer back! I learned a lot from my brothers.
Luciana, happy birthday, and may you be as noisy as a parrot, but as original as yourself
Haha. Thanks Vincent. In person I'm a quiet type. I think I spent a lot of talking time in my childhood.
