I never remember that it is on the 17th. I always have to look it up cuz mom & dad were married on the 14th, the Ides of March is the 15th, my dad's birthday on the 16th, and then St Patrick's day on the 17th. I get them mixed up almost every year. Same way with my cousins' birthdays. They all have birthdays in August. I know the dates, but have no idea which date belongs to whom. To top it off, they are all siblings. I just send all the cards at the same time. LOL.
