the love od my life


Mom
AquariusThe Water Bearer
Jan. 20-Feb. 18You're the natural rebel of the Zodiac, and it's likely that you won't feel the need to follow tradition or conventional wisdom when it comes to parenting -- you'd rather rely on your own instincts to tell you how best to raise your child. But it's important for Aquarius moms to remember that they need not always go against the grain just for the sake of rebel status. (Eventually, it might be nice to get baby on a real nap schedule, mama.) You're altruistic and will likely make it a priority to raise your child with socially responsible values. Your neighbors and baby's grandparents may not share your unconventional view of the world, but no matter -- you have the ability to model a tolerant attitude, and your growing child will benefit from it. To help satisfy your attraction to the offbeat, seek out unusual kid classes or playgroups in your area -- or be the renegade that you are and start one of your own.


Baby
LibraThe Scales
Sept. 23-Oct. 22What a charmer you've brought into the world! Libras are blessed with grace and an inherent ability to captivate everyone around them. Give your social child ample opportunities to interact with her peers, such as baby classes and playdates (she'll be Ms. Popularity long before she starts preschool). Consider throwing a big party for her first birthday -- she'll likely get a kick out of getting dressed up and being doted on by loved ones. And bust a move together: Libras love music and dancing
