And remember how I'm a little freaky deaky with numbers. And I'm very superstitious and into horoscopes and fortunes. Crazy talk... I know, but just deal with it. Because really, it's rad.
The way to draw our fortune stick is by gripping the container firmly with both hands, make a wish, and shake the container until 1 stick pops out... this is your fortune.
So two years ago for 2009's Chinese New Year I randomly pulled the number 7 fortune stick. Hello, number 7 people. Here's what my fortune said that year:
Your Luck For Today:
Lucky "Seven" ages say, is always good; it's yours today
Your Fortune:
Loved for yourself and
self alone.
Your life should happy be,
so bless this gift
that's given to you,
Through life and eternity.
A stranger to your home
within a year.
Wish Fortune:
You will get your wish.
Peeps.... We got Layla a few months later. Really, did you even doubt the Chinese?
So I was all riled up this year when it came time to draw fortune sticks. Guess what I randomly picked.....
Number 27, (2+7 = 9) (if you don't know my weirdness with the #'s 7 & 9 read it here)
Your Luck For Today:
Of all the numbers known
to men,
This is the worst, so draw again.
(Great. Thanks for nothing..... until I drew number 7 again!!!!!)
Your Fortune:
A little trouble is your lot.
But health the fates portend,
But don't give up, you're sure to be
successful in the end.
Wish fortune:
You will get your wish
before the year is out.
Other than the trouble and worst number issue... I'm excited. And in case you questioned my webster skills, yes, I had to look up the definition of "portend." My health is on the mend and that is a sign of good things to come! And really, need I even mention what I wished for? I think you all can use your wild imaginations.

its happenin'. i have no doubt in my mind.
ps. i laughed out loud when i got your last email because you sent it on the day i went into labor... still laughing at these words:
"How are you feeling by the way? Any signs of an early delivery??? I Am so excited to see V! "
and that is another reason why i believe your horoscope and fortune shenanigans
