I came across yet another group calling itself “Wednesday’s Child…” I am familiar with the term “Wednesday’s child” and know there are numerous children’s help organizations, etc., called by that name in some manner or another, “Wednesday’s child is full of woe.”
Now this got me to wondering about the poem and the actual day of the my birth. I searched for a retro calendar and found one, it turns out I am a Monday baby. Next, locate the poem. It is titled Monday’s Child.
MONDAY’S CHILD
Monday’s child is fair of face,
Tuesday’s child is full of grace,
Wednesday’s child is full of woe,
Thursday’s child has far to go,
Friday’s child is loving and giving,
Saturday’s child works hard for its living,
And a child that’s born on the Sabbath day
Is fair and wise and good and gay.
If you do not know the day of your birth and are curious, check out this site, Time and Date and for some background on the poem, see Monday’s Child at Wikipedia.org.
Mmm–I think I have just proved that you can research anything
The computer makes it quick and simple.
