Do you know what day of the week you were born on?

I’m a Thursday child with far to go…but I don’t think I’ve got the energy!

I heard that years ago, especially with home births, it was common for parents to fib about the dob for tax reasons?
Or was that a myth? confused

Saturday.
Yes, I work hard because I enjoy being busy.
I'm a Pisces, so I'm in a good place now.

Yes, I thought that I was graceful, but it turns out that I am woeful instead.
It’s a bit of a rubbish poem really.
Thursday’s child gets a bit of a short straw; and why isn’t anyone wise or clever?
I think that it could do with an overhaul!

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 who is born on the Sabbath Day
Is bonny and blithe and good and gay.

Sunday. My mum told me and she was right. Too close to Christmas,though but I was actually due on Christmas Day so I guess that would have been even worse. All that stuff about Bonny and blithe and good and gay is perfectly accurate of course ! ???

Inspired by an MN thread, where the poster had gone her whole life thinking she was a Sunday child, because that's what her mother had told her, only to discover she was in actual fact a Monday child.
I just googled my dob and day and I'm Wednesday's child. Full of woe.
That's me stuffed then grin
