I’d never heard of that song before my intern said it. I’d told my team that my birthday was coming. On our long call day, to be exact.
“Your birthday? Oh man! I’ll have to sing you Las Mañanitas, Dr. M!”
Las Mañanitas? I sifted my brain for the song.
Nope. I had nada.

Alfonso, my intern, was originally from Mexico City. He shared that “Las Mañanitas” is the classic song people sing or play on birthdays in Mexico. Then? He took out his phone, pulled up a YouTube and played it for us.
“This is Happy Birthday where I’m from,” he said.
Yup.

Alfonso kept his promise and sang (part of) Las Mañanitas on my birthday--1st thing on our morning long call rounds.
Sure did.
That was a while ago. But I always remembered that moment and stuck it on a mental post-it note in the back of my head.
