The Taurus Child

I came across this horoscope for the Taurus Child this week and it stopped me in my tracks - who peeked into the personality of my son to determine what babies born under the sign of the bull must be like?!! Seriously, this is Isaac in a nutshell (his attachment to 3 (yes, 3!) security blankets, his great love of food, the impossiblity of getting him to come indoors, his dedication to feeding Molly, even his obsession with playing with credit cards in his own wallet and paying the clerks every time we go to the store......and DO NOT try to tell him we're in a hurry!):

About the Taurus Child
Built for Comfort, Not for Speed

Salt of the earth -- that's your Taurus child in a nutshell. Even as infants, these children are sweet, affectionate, and cuddly. They also tend to be strong and hearty. Introduce your baby to the great outdoors as early as possible -- the young Taurus thrives in a natural environment. Older Taurus children often enjoy having a small garden, houseplants, or animals to care for, and they're quite diligent in their duties. Children of the Bull experience the world through their senses: They like the way things taste, feel, sound, and smell. In fact, from the moment they're born, they love to eat. Even when young, Taurus children are practical and good with money. A primary need for Taurus folks of all ages is security. Small Taurus babies like to be swaddled and held, which makes them feel safe. Some Taurus children are clingy, while others develop an attachment to a security blanket or hoard their possessions. Let your love be their haven. Taurus children aren't hurried. In fact, they're downright slow -- which you as a parent will need to adjust for in your scheduling. Don't pack too many activities into a day, and don't expect your Taurus child to pick up the pace. It's just not going to happen.

A few fun pics of our little bull from the summer so far:
