April is one of my favorite months of the year. What's not to love? April means spring is finally here, Easter is close, and at my house - Birthdays!!! My son has an April Fool's Day birthday, and mine is later in the month. Throw in nieces and nephews, and the month becomes one big birthday party!!
I am sure you are wondering - where is she going with this?!?!? The April birthstone is a diamond. Pop singer Rhianna sings the song
"Shine Bright Like A Diamond," about how we are ALL diamonds, bright and beautiful, coming in many shapes and sizes. If you want to hear the song or read the lyrics, click
