Famous Christmas Birthdays
I read an article stating that is was the Prime Minister of Canada's birthday today. It got me thinking about who else may be born on this day.
Christmas is a day that we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, but a lot of other important people were also born on this day. Since news and life outside of our immediate family seems to stop, we may be forgetting to wish a happy birthday to some of our favourite human beings.
This list was made up from data found on www.onthisday.com. So check them out for a complete list of 293 December 25th birthdays
So here were a few note worthy's that I picked out of the list:
1971
Justin Trudeau

Happy Birthday Sir Isaac Newton <3 and a Merry Christmas to You David :D
Birthdays are so weird when they are near the 25th. My youngest son was born on the 23rd and he is likely to have fairly tame parties for his whole life and probally won't ever feel the birthday magic that most other kids feel. Oh well, not everyone can time it right I suppose.
Wow, it's really informative. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas and stay blessed.
Have a great day.
