It's a running joke in my family that everyone's name is Joe. Both my grandfathers, my dad, my brother, two nieces..Jodi, Joanne, you get the picture. So we named her Rachael. Everyone wanted to know "who was she named after?" Herself was the answer. So what crazy holiday falls on her birthday???...National Joe Day!!!
