Only babies are called by their age in months, and only children say exactly how old they are, adding on the months. The rest of us use whole numbers for the year.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-2851932220872832952009-05-24T22:03:33.757+01:002009-05-24T22:03:33.757+01:00Only if you use whole numbers.
