Happy Leap Year!

It is Feb. 29, and that means one thing—it's a Leap Year. Every four years, we celebrate an extra day in February, and 2012 happens to be one of those years.

Fast Fact:
It was Julius Caesar who introduced the Leap Year to the Romans about 2,000 years ago, but there was only one rule: to have the year be divisible by four. It wasn't until 1,500 years later that that was corrected, when it was found that there were too many Leap Years.
