Mrs. Dewar's 23rd Birthday

Jimmy's mother, Dorothy Herndon Dewar, was born February 29, 1916, which makes her ninety-two years old, but since she was a leap year baby, today is only the twenty-third time in her life that she has been able to celebrate on her actual birthday. On the years in between, we recognize February 28th as her birthday.

Jimmy has not been going out at all, but he did go to see his mother today, and he loved being with her. She had a very nice birthday: she enjoyed a birthday luncheon with friends and family at the country club, and got lots of cards and calls and flowers and balloon bouquets. Everybody loves Mrs. Dewar.
