Not every time, no. I missed my mom's this past October. Didn't remember it till the next week. I do think of my dad's usually cuz his birthday falls a week after R's.
Lessee. Mom would have been 78 last year, and Dad would be 80 this March. I forget my mom's death anniversary a lot, too. Dad's sticks in my head a little more, although it's not the purveyor of nightmares and need for company that it once was.
I always think about my mother on her birthday, if only because she died eleven days after her sixty-third. She would have been seventy-five this year. Hard to believe it's been twelve years already. I should visit her grave this March, on her birthday. I meant to do that several times in the past but never seemed to manage.
My mother's birthday is Dec. 31st, so I always think of her. It's been 13 going on 14 years now. My father died when I was 5, so I don't think of him on his birthday.
