The day February 27, 2004, a small little girl was born
and just the 2nd birthday of my older brother
A new bundle of joy was just given birth in the hospital and another year old
celebrated in two different places

Realizing that I was going to be
the only daughter and sister to my family

Older brother overly excited
getting a baby sister and knowing that
he will need to protect me

Growing up I hated the idea of sharing
birthdays, just me not him
I wanted all the attending and gifts to myself

That I idea of sharing that same day,
and me not wanting to share that to the people
making excuses of it so no one will wonder
And think that we had the same birthday.

As I have grown up now in the present day I love sharing it, and it’s one of
my important highlights to share and a little background about me,
wanting the whole world to know about me and my sibling
it’s another year of truing old my older brother
my older brother realizes it’s another year of truing old and asks if I’m happy.
and ask if I'm fine about it.
