APRIL

April is the fourth month of the year in the Gregorian calendar, the fifth in the early Julian, the first of four months to have a length of 30 days, and the second of five months to have a length of less than 31 days. April is a spring month in the northern half of the world and a fall month in the southern half. It might be named after Aphrodite, the goddess of love. April's birth flower is the daisy. April is the fourth month in the Gregorian calendar and has 30 days.

If you read the first paragraph, I hope you found it "interesting," perhaps informative, but did you enjoy it?
