Today is Kirsten's birthday! She was born this day in 1845, which makes her 171 today!

In Kirsten's books, Kirsten has to do chores after chores after chores leading to her birthday because her pregnant mother is sick. But when it seems like Kirsten's family forgot about her birthday, she gets rewarded for her hard work with a day of fun- and a surprise.

What are you doing for Kirsten's birthday? I'm doing nothing because I don't have her. Even if I did have her, though, I wouldn't celebrate because today's my graduation from elementary school! I'm giving a speech to my class- wish me luck!
