We have a silly tradition in our house of celebrating the kids' half birthdays. The idea was born about 20 years ago when I became friends with Jenni Hagey whose birthday was exactly 6 months after mine. We dubbed ourselves half birthday twins since whenever one of us was having a birthday, the other was having a half birthday. We'd give each other half a card, half a cake, etc. So, I decided to carry this on with my kids. When you're a kiddo, getting to say you're four and a HALF is a very big deal!! So we celebrated Brooke's 4 and a HALF birthday with half a cupcake, half a card, and half of the birthday song. She loved it and proudly tells everyone her new age when they ask.
