Nursery Rhyme Fortune Telling

I was just straightening up the bookshelf in Emma's room and came across a huge Mother Goose Treasury (Thanks Aunt Brenda!). Flipping through it, I saw the Monday's Child Rhyme:

Monday's child is fair of face, 
Tuesday's child is full of grace, 
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go, 
Friday's child is loving and giving, 
Saturday's child works hard for a living, 
But the child born on the Sabbath day, 
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay. 

According to this, Emma is loving and giving and Mia is full of grace. So far, I think these descriptions are fairly accurate of our two girls!

In case you are wondering, Carrie is fair of face and Kurt is also loving and giving.

And also, mostly because I never remember these things and might if I actually write them here:
(I copied these descriptions from this site)
Emma is a Gemini:
Flexibility, balance and adaptability are the keywords for the Gemini. They are quick to grasp the meaning of a situation and act on it, often with positive effects. They tend to have a duality to their nature, and can sometimes be tough to predict how they will react. They can turn from hot to cold and may be prone to noticeable mood swings. However, they are generous signs with tendencies of being affectionate, and imaginative. They also inspire others easily as they seem to naturally motivate themselves their charisma and accomplishments are infectious. Geminians are very supportive, and are especially good at promotions, sales, and driving hard bargains. 

Mia is an Aries:
Aries people are creative, adaptive, and insightful. They can also be strong-willed and spontaneous (sometimes to a fault). Aries people can be driven and are very ambitious often making them over-achievers in anything they set their mind to tackle. Aries are fire signs, and so too is their personality. They may be quick to anger, but don't take it personally, it's just their fiery, passionate personalities showing through. Aries signs have excellent sense of humor, and they get along with almost everyone at the party (and they DO know how to party). Aries can be impatient, but we love them anyway because they are devoted friends, lovers and family members they are loyal to then end and will fight for their causes (usually supporting the underdog).
