His birth date might have matched the devil’s number this year, but Jayden Bestenbreur was all smiles when he celebrated his sixth birthday.

HIS sixth birthday might have been marked with a satanic number but Jayden Bestenbreur is quite the angel.
On Tuesday, the Berwick boy celebrated his sixth birthday on the sixth day of the sixth month of 2006.
Although the sixes are long known as the number of the devil, Jayden’s parents, Susanne and Peter, said they had been looking forward to the occasion ever since their son was born.
The family celebrated his birthday on Tuesday with lots of party food and presents including a car racing set and Lego.
Mrs Bestenbreur, a mother of three, said she was pleased her son was born on such a special day.
She said her two other children had also been born on significant days — Australia Day and her grandmother’s 100th birthday.
“My niece, who was 14 at the time, said to me ‘do you realise what day he is born on?’
“I thought it was fantastic that he was born on such a special day,” she said.
Despite the birth date Mrs Bestenbreur said her son did not have a touch of the devil in him and instead was more like an angel.
“He is a beautiful boy and has a lovely nature,” she said.
