Easy to remember

My hubby never remembers which holiday is in May.

I told him it’s easy to remember. They start with the same letter:

Memorial Day is in May.

This means, of course, that Labor Day is in Leptember.

All I can say is thank goodness for calendars! There’s no way we’d keep up with anything without them.

The first letter memory trick works with Mother’s Day too, btw.

Cute! I always remember that Labor means work and when I was a kid, we went back to school in September, which was work. It’s worked for me since then!

Amanda, that’s true! Did you know that Mother’s Day is in a completely different month, depending on which country you’re in?! My hubby discovered that when he was traveling in England in March. http://thecasualperfectionist.com/2008/02/pop-quiz-when-is-mother%E2%80%99s-day/

Kat, that’s a great way to remember it! One of my aunts was born in September (right around Labor Day), and that’s how I remembered it when I was younger…Labor = Birth. It’s funny how we remember things, huh? Whatever works!
