The Daily Pledge May 2018

[Roller831]

Happy May everyone and welcome to the Daily Pledge in the Celebrations & Events‌ community where we can meet daily to take another person's hand and make our commitment stronger.

Everyone knows that April showers bring May flowers, but if you don’t like gardening, then what do you do?

For everyone else, May means summer is about to start, kids are almost out of school, and the weather is getting hotter - but there's a lot more to it than all that. Here are 3 interesting facts about May that you may not know about May.

See what I did there? 

1. May is named after Maia, the Greek goddess of fertility – However, the Roman poet Ovid took issue with the whole idea of May being named after a Greek goddess, so he decided the name actually came from the word majors, which means “the ELDER'S “. 
2. No US president has ever died in May. It is the only month of the year that can make that claim.
3. In any single year, no other month begins or ends on the same day of the week as May. It’s true.  Grab a calendar and check!

Now that you have a few fun facts about May, it is time to pledge.
