A trick that I use to help me remember an important date

(Chapter 26 MCI Tool Box in my book)

I can remember my three grown children's birthdays without a problem. Two of my three children are married. After they both got married, I had to get their wedding dates in my long-term memory. One of them got married on their siblings, birthday so that date is easy for me to remember. It is also a holiday. I had to come up with a trick to remember the other wedding date. My youngest child got married on the twenty-ninth of the month. By looking at a calendar, I figured out that the twenty-ninth is the last date of each month that ends in the 20's. Now I can remember their anniversary because I always know what month they got married and I just use this trick to remember the exact date.
