Susie Lee

Today is Mama Sue's birthday. I affectionately refer to her as Mama Sue. She is a wealth of knowledge. Seriously, if you're ever wondering about something or somebody, chances are my mom knows something about the subject. Since my mom loves trivia, I've found some interesting facts. I love that she shares her birthday with the likes of these famous persons:


  • George Washington - also known as the father of our country and first president

  • Drew Barrymore - actress

  • Charles VII - King of France

  • Frederic Chopin - composer

  • Julius Erving - also known as "Dr. J" on the basketball court

  • Steve Irwin - AKA the Crocodile Hunter - Crikey!

  • Ted Kennedy - Massachusetts Senator - although I don't think she'd be thrilled about sharing a birthday with him :)

Important events that happened on Mama Sue's birthday:



  • The Miracle on Ice - USA wins the gold medal in hockey against the USSR at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympic Games

  • The Tet Offensive ends in 1968

  • Milli Vanilli wins Best New Artist Grammy 1990

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMA SUE! I love you lots and hope you had a spectacular day!
