We were having a discussion this morning about the calendars and how the Chinese Lunar calendar is not the same as the Gregorian calendar. I also explained to you that once every 4 years would be a leap year when February has 29 days. Then I jokingly asked "Imagine you are born on 29th Feb? You would only get to celebrate your birthday once every 4 years!". You looked at me wide-eyed and our conversation continued:
Evelyn: Oh no, luckily you told me about this.
Mummy: Why?
Evelyn: I was planning to have my kid's birthday on 29th February.
Mummy: What? You have this planned?
Evelyn: Yes. So now it's better for me to pick another date.
Mummy: (Thinks to myself: Oh my...). So how many kids do you want to have?
Evelyn: Twins.
Mummy: Why do you want twins?
Evelyn: If I have only 1 child, she (yes, "she" as you have mentioned many times that you want a daughter) would be bored.
Mummy: Well, even with twins it doesn't mean they want to play together all the time....
Evelyn: *Keeping silent.. probably digesting.. either what I said or your breakfast *grin*
Goodness, the funny things that go through your mind.. My dear, you have many, many more years before you will have your child(ren).
