The Amazing Addison

Addison, if you lived in some of the Asian countries, your horoscope sign would be the Earth Ox.

Oxen in China are put on a pedestal. So it goes with Oxen people. Oxen are bright, peace-loving, often easy-going and trusting. But, on the other hand, they can also be stubborn, methodical, and fiercely competitive, with, shudder, fierce tempers to boot. Oxen are natural born mentors and life is filled with examples of people who have gone on to great success because of them. Mentally and physically alert to the point of genius, many Oxen belong to Mensa. They can create the most imposing structures, magnificent sculpture, and homes. They respond like poets to the beauties of nature and of solitude. Oxen are unique, they are The Flower that bursts through the crack of cement.

Addison, your Aunt Rachael and I went to visit your dad and mum.  We cooked dinner for them.  Your Dad was tired, he works very hard.  His face was red from being in the sun, and your mom reminded him to wear sun block.

Your Grandma Sherry called to check on you and your dad and mum.  She said she’s going to come over to your house next week and teach your mum how to cook.  I’ll probably go to her house this weekend to help her with her computer.  I’ll never forget the moment you were born.  I squeeled in shock, and your Grandma Sherry had both hands to the sides of her face, saying “Ohhhhhh!”  

Your mom said that you were at her breast nearly non-stop last night for about 4 hours.  You know exactly what you want now. Your mom looked very tired this evening.  Your Aunt Rachael and I cleaned up quickly and left you and your young parents to settle down for the evening.

You were very alert today.  You mom and dad see you like this often enough, but usually when I see you, you are sleeping.  Not today.  Your beautiful blue eyes were wide awake and looking at everything.  Sometimes you looked contemplative, other times you looked puzzled.  Maybe I read too much into your expressions. In any case you are riveting to look upon.
