My computer is counting, that’s who. Ever since Lotus and I talked a week ago, I’ve dang-near worn my fingertips raw typing in potential Easter Sunday birthdays. And I’ve come to the conclusion they’re rare as an honest politician.

Lotus — she was named after the aquatic plant, of course — was born on Easter Sunday, April 4, 1926, in Otto, N.C.

Since then, her birthday and Easter have coincided just three times: 1999, 2010 and 2021. She’d better make the most of it today because the next April 4th Easter doesn’t roll back around until 2083.

I always thought it was weird that folks born on Feb. 29 only got an official birthday every Leap Year. But for Pete’s sake, at least they can depend on a regular, four-year cycle. Not so with Easter babies.

Easter falls on the first Sunday after the full moon past the vernal equinox. It can hop-scotch all over the spring calendar. The earliest possible date is March 22, latest is April 25. Toss in the occasional Leap Year and you can see why lining up Easter with a precise date is such a long shot.

This got me thinking about my own mother, who was born April 13, 1913.

It wasn’t until my computer search that I discovered her birthday occurred on Easter only twice: 1941 and 1952. Maw died in 2003. She would needed to have lived to age 118 before it happened again, in 2031.

I also researched April 2, when Mary Ann and I got hitched in 1969. It has only landed on Easter once, in 1972, and won’t repeat until 2051.

Hmm … while (a) we’re both still of this orb and (b) I still have mental faculties, limited as they may be, let me wish my dearest a joyous Easter/82nd anniversary. Perhaps I oughta order flowers now, while it’s on my mind.

But back to Lotus Plott. This woman has led a unique life in so many ways.

At age 17, she was put in charge of the Western Union office in Tryon, N.C. Sadly, one of her most common communiques during that WW II era was relayed from the government: “We are sorry to inform you …”

Two years later, she was hired by a wholesale lumber distributor in Tryon. She wound up buying the company and spent 3½ decades brokering wood all over the U.S. and Canada.

Then she got her real estate license and logged 33 years selling land, homes and commercial property. She has lived in Tennessee since 1973.

Today’s special festivities notwithstanding, Lotus says she’s holding out for a super-duper 100th bash on April 4, 2026.
