What is a birthday without that special song?
On this day, March 27, 1868, Patty Smith Hill was born in Anchorage, Kentucky,
She was an American educator who introduced the progressive philosophy to kindergarten teaching, according to Britannica.com.
And even though you might not recognize her name, she and her sister, Mildred J. Hill, co-wrote a collection of songs that includes “Good Morning To You.”
The tune of that song became the melody for “Happy Birthday to You!”
So, if today is your special day, Happy Birthday to you!
