I don't think that will do it. The date stored in the database would be 10/15/1980, or 10/21/1993.
Those should both show a birthday in the month of August. But, I don't want just a matching month. I want it for the next 30 days. So, on December 15th I should see all birthdays between December 15th and January 15th regardless of what year the birthday is in.
