Some Birthday Superstitions.

Monday’s child is fair of face.

Tuesday’s child is full of grace.

Wednesday’s child is born for woe.

Thursday’s child has far to go.

Friday’s child is loving and giving.

Saturday’s child must work for a living.

But the child that is born on the Sabbath Day,

Is bonny and happy and wealthy and gay.
