Zoie Joseph wants some toys for her Feb. 29 birthday - after all she'll turn 4

Posted by Fred Steiner on February 28, 2016 - 8:59pm

Turning 16 is always a birthday to remember. And celebrating it on Feb. 29 is a birthday few would forget.
 
Zoie Joseph, Bluffton High School freshman, will do just that. She’ll blow out either 4 or 16 candles on Feb. 29. That’s because she’s a leap year baby.
 
She hopes to celebrate this year, appropriately as any 4-year-old. She wants a Strawberry Short Cake with 4 candles and a bunch of toys gifts to open.
