Two colleagues of mine are expecting their first-born this year. They are good friends and coincidentally will be having their babies in the same month. Talk about good friends!
They even go shopping for baby clothes and items together as well as for maternity clothes, though one has to settle for maternity clothes plus size. Yeah, moms can look this great too.
Like all dragon years past, this lunar Year of the Dragon will see an increase in the birth of babies in China and other places around the world with ethnic Chinese populations such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia. The Year of the Dragon will run until Feb 9, 2013.
The general belief is that babies born in the Year of the Dragon are blessed with courage, intelligence and good fortune as the dragon is the only celestial animal sign in the Chinese Zodiac. Even the non-Chinese are timing their child's birth to this twelve-year cycle Year of the Dragon from a newspaper article I read the other day.
too many parents planning for dragon babies makes more stressful competences amongst the kids, hahaha~~ :p
ReplyDeletei was lucky, born a year after that~~ :p
ReplyDeleteOK I pity all the dragon babies. They are in for one heck of a competitive life! LOL!
ReplyDeleteDragon being the only Celestial zodiac sign is unfortunately overrated this year..
ReplyDeleteSK, true. Our education system is stressful as it is.
ReplyDeleteOhh? Then this is going to be one good year for you! Gong Xi Fa Cai, indeed!
Foong, being a panda is best! LOL!
ReplyDeleteRobin, I read that this year's dragon babies will not have it all good. They may be having health issues besides being rather rebellious. Parents have been advised not to pamper them too much.
