My Personal Horoscope by Robert Pollini & Susan Miller
If you've ever dabbled in computerized astrology reports for your
girlfriend's newborn, you know how inappropriate most of the texts are.
All kinds of detailed information on the wee ones sexual desires, problems on the job, and other embarrassing assumptions. The result is usually that the new moms politely respond with a quick thank-you and you just know they stopped reading the thing after two sentences, entirely bewildered.
But the personalized, baby reports offered by www.mypersonalhoroscope.com are all about understanding your child's potential, helping them realize that potential, lots of good fuzzy, sincere parenting stuff we all crave.
I ordered online and my big shiny copy of my baby jj's astrology arrived. It is full of pretty illustrations which kept him busy while I read aloud about his many quirks, talents and sensitivities. He loved hearing his name repeated so often! His Oma has read it too, so she can also participate in making his childhood as festive as humanly possible.
There's also a little bit about how jj relates to his parents based on our Sun signs. If I read that one to him a few times maybe he won't mind his hectic, Gemini mom so much. I can see myself now, getting the book when he's a tormented teenager, pointing at the page and saying "but you knew this about me, son, when you were an infant! I told you I was a Gemini!".
Highly recommended as a chic gift for the astrology-minded new parents. Very original and fun, produced in the Netherlands, so you can't go wrong there, ja? You go get one and you tell me.
