Conversation between me and Nick....
Nick: Mom...I think there are four important birthdays in your life.
Mom: Yeah...which ones?
Nick: I think it's 13...because then your a teenager
I think it's 16...because it's your sweet sixteen, and you can drive
I think it's 18...because then your an adult and then you can watch rated R movies
And then it's 100...just because it's a miracle that your still around
Mom: Yep...your right. Except for that rated R movies thing. You shouldn't ever watch them. :)
Nick: I know...I'm not going to, I was just saying you'd be able to!
Nick: Mom...how old is grandaddy Dyer?
Mom: I think he is going to be 89 this summer
Nick: Wow! He could live to be like...100.....I mean if he doesn't have some freak accident. Like someone shooting him or something!
Mom: What??
Nick: It happens!
I've got to stop letting him watch the evening news!

The MOST important birthday is the day we were born.
The rated "R" movie comment reminds me of a conversation between the teacher of our church Sunday School class and one of the other church members that was attending the class:
Teacher: "Now how would you feel if you decided to attend a rated 'R' movie and the Savior came in and sat down next to you?"
Church Member: "Actually, I'd feel a whole lot better about choosing to go the movie in the first place!" :)
