Mason's team came in 2nd place in their league so they're moving on to the District Championships. Let me tell you, the kid is obsessed with baseball. He'll play ball with you as long as you'll keep up and when he's not playing or practicing with the team, he's watching old baseball games on YouTube or stories about baseball, etc. For most of the TOC Games he played catcher or short stop but he feels comfortable with any position. He hasn't been playing video games lately. He goes in and out of that.
Kyla is sure growing up quickly. She often answers the phone when I call home from work and she sounds about 13 years old. She amazes me with the amount of wisdom she has at such an early age. Sadly, she's less attached to me that she was before. Totally normal I know, but boo-hoo. She enjoys hanging out in her room, FaceTiming on the phone with her bestie or playing outside. She spends a ton of time drawing and believe me, she is so good at it. She watches YouTube to get ideas and help. Crafty girl.
Crazy how different my 2 children are.
Mason - not a care in the world. I don't think he's ever had a sleepless night or worry in the world. Never stressed. School comes easy to him for the most part. He loves to read and is a super fast reader too. Typical guy I guess with the sleep thing.
Kyla - worries about everything (wonder where she gets that from). She was sobbing the other day because she was worried she'd get a bad grade on her report card and has never as much gotten even a progress report. I couldn't figure that one out. She has trouble sleeping just about every night and even worries about whether she'll be able to sleep.
I'm going to look up their Astrological Signs just for kicks.
Taurus is a Fixed Earth sign, ruled by Venus. As the second sign in the zodiac, the Taurus individual is a stable, conservative, home-loving individual who will always make a loyal friend or partner. Famous and historical figures sharing the Taurus traits include Ulysses Grant (April 27), Harry Truman (May 8), George Clooney (May 6), and Audrey Hepburn (May 4).
The Taurus personality is one of the most easily recognizable of the zodiac. These are steady, reliable people who only rarely get frazzled or upset. Like a bull, the Taurus personality will almost never lose course and will remain level no matter what chaos surrounds him. Taurus knows his own strength but usually handles situations with dignity and self-control. Push him too far, though, and the Taurus individual can suddenly turn into a raging bull, and once this happens, he will be difficult to calm. And oh yes, lest we forget, the Taurus individual is stubborn - the most stubborn of all the zodiac signs. Once he forms an opinion, he is immovable, and nothing will change his mind. Taurus likes the good life, but tends to be careful with money, slowly building up wealth as he goes. Not all Taureans are rich, but you won't find many at the very bottom of society.
For those with a Taurus child, one thing to remember from the start is that you will never, ever be able to steer this child in a direction in which he does not want to go. This is a sturdy child with a good appetite - sometimes too good. Watch out for overindulgence with this kid. When young, the Taurus child may be prone to fly into rages over little upsets, and these will have to be handled with quiet logic rather than force, or the situation will quickly spiral out of control. Taurus children will generally obey the rules and will follow a steady course in school., usually somewhere in the middle of the class. The child will appreciate comfortable surroundings in his bedroom and consistency in his schedule. Don't rock the boat by changing things around too much in the Taurus child's domain. Encouraging social interaction is good for the Taurus child, as he is quite comfortable being alone, and will generally not seek out friends and playmates on his own. There's a definite selfish trait in these children, so teaching sharing and concern for others from an early age is essential. These children like material possessions from day one, so provide as many quality toys as possible, and you will have a happy child who does not get lonely or need excessive attention. Watch out for a lazy streak in the Taurus child - they may be slow to walk or crawl, and they may be content to play in one spot in their room for long periods. Find stimulating activities to get this child out of his chair, as he probably won't motivate himself in this respect.
Adult Taureans in the workplace are the ones with neat, well-appointed, comfortable offices that never change much. These folks handle tasks steadily and confidently, rarely complaining or getting into a tizzy about minor setbacks. They are reliable, focused, practical, and usually right on time. They won't turn out work in record time, but rather will just make steady progress until the given task is completed. They are honest and forthright, and are usually well-regarded and well-respected by their colleagues. Employers love Taurus individuals, because they are dependable, work hard, stay late if necessary, and never complain. Taureans tend to keep jobs for a long time - often for life - because they hate change. Many are business owners themselves, and good ones at that because of their steady, stoic personas.
Mason's is right on ... except the appetite part. Kid doesn't eat anything. Stubborn and bull headed but dependable. Loves consistency and is careful with his money. Still a spender but does a ton of research beforehand and always looks for a sale or a good deal.
Aries is a Cardinal Fire sign, ruled by Mars. As the first sign in the zodiac, and corresponding with the first day of spring, the Aries individual is a mover and shaker, fearlessly forging ahead or "springing forth" into new territory. Indeed, some very influential historical characters are found under this sign including Thomas Jefferson (April 13) and Leonardo Da Vinci (April 15). The raw power of the Aries/Taurus cusp personality gone bad is epitomized by none other than Adolph Hitler (April 20).
The Aries personality is always a force to be reckoned with. These are curious and energetic individuals, always delving into new areas, but often quickly becoming bored and moving on, leaving unfinished projects in their wake. Arians are forthcoming and direct. They don't generally have hidden agendas or ulterior motives. If they find an area in which they are interested for a long period, they can become quite accomplished, well-known, and wealthy.
For those with an Aries child, you have a child with confidence and the innate resources to deal with new ideas and situations. This child is likely quite opinionated and is often territorial about possessions. This kid will tell you like it is according to their own inner truths, and will not feel bad about it later. These are the free birds of childhood, and they feel that they have the right to explore new territories unhindered, both physical and mental. Getting a child like this to follow the rules may be a challenge, but if they understand that the rule is for safety or other logical reasons, they are likely to agree and comply. Even when young, all Arians are very competitive and cannot stand it if they do not come out on top. This "me first" attitude will be evident throughout life, and they often get what they want simply because of this unshakable attitude. The Arian child is very active, jumping into action whenever something interests him, but when asked to do uninteresting mundane tasks like cleaning their room they will resort to procrastination and even lies to get out of doing this unappealing job. The Aries child will have problems in school occasionally, but their competitive nature will usually pull them through. They want more than anything to be Number One!
Adult Arians in the workplace do well if they find jobs in which they can work on their own terms. Many Arians are self-employed for this reason, and many others are managers and foremen. An Arian can function well under other people, however, as long as he has some authority over someone else too. The Army structure with its many levels seems well-suited to Arians, and politics are a natural for this sign. Occupations that involve driving and the open road are appealing to Aries, as are outside sales type occupations. Arians are intellectual more than spiritual, so you won't find too many in prominent religious or holistic capacities. Arians will not be happy at the bottom of the heap unless they feel that they are in charge of something or someone. An Arian will do well in a job situation with a big picture, with supporting cast to do the finishing work.
Kyla's is not even close except the procrastination when asked to clean her room. She's defitely easily bored and a mover and a shaker though. Tons of unfinished projects. No "me first" attitude thank goodness.
