On your first birthday I wrote a poem for
Your second birthday which, vis-a-vis deduction etc. etc., anno Domini etc. etc., avuncular etc. etc., ipso facto
Marks today as your second second birthday, which makes you very lucky as
Most only ever experience a single second birthday. Though, speaking
Technically, only a single birthday can ever really be had by anyone, that being the
Actual day of the person’s birth, the following birthdays being mere anniversaries. In the
Conventional sense, however, a person generally does accrue one birthday per year, one
Accrued for each year spent alive, each birthday
Being celebrated one year after the one previous, though I am the first to point out that
The average person suffers from spending nearly 6 months of every year closer to his future age than his current one.

What’s important to gather from all this, dear nephew, is it seems that today you are actually turning
Three, a full year in advance of your peers. This is certainly cause for
Celebration.
