Smith 'leaping' into his 20th birthday
The chances of being born on February 29 are one in 1,462, with
about 20,000 in Canada.
By Stefania
MORETTI,
Special To
Sun
Media, Tues., February 26,
Paul Leigh
SMITH has had fewer birthdays than his 24-year-old
grand_son Joel
McMILLAN. A leap-year baby,
SMITH will turn 80
on his 20th birthday Friday.
SMITH has been married 60 years
and has 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. (Derek
RUTTAN,
Sun
Media)
With 65 years experience operating gourmet food outlets in the
city, 60 years of marriage, 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren,
Paul Leigh
SMITH will celebrate his 20th birthday on Friday.
SMITH, founder of Hasbeans Ltd., is a leap-year baby. And while
he isn't planning much for his 20th, he enjoys having a rare
and special birthday.
"Growing up, I was very proud of being different," said
SMITH,
born February 29, 1928, at the family's Clarence Street home,
just blocks from where his specialty coffee shop has been serving
up fresh java since 1969.
SMITH wasn't the only "leaper" in the family. His grandfather
was one, too, although he wouldn't venture to guess from which
year.
"How would I know? I'm only 20,"
SMITH jested.
"My kids used to ask me, 'How old are you daddy?' I would tease
and say '11.' "
SMITH's
Irish heritage meant men in the family were commonly
taunted during a leap year. According to Irish folklore, February 29
was the only day a woman should ask for a man's hand in marriage.
"No woman ever proposed to me though,"
SMITH joked.
SMITH was engaged to be married on what would have been his fifth
birthday during a leap year in 1948. He and his wife Donna will
celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary on October 9.
After 120 years of
SMITH family-owned produce, deli and coffee
kiosks at the Convent Garden Market, fifth-generation
SMITHs
still greet patrons with a cup of Joe and a smile.
Joel McMILLAN, 24,
SMITH's grand_son, has worked at Hasbeans Ltd.
since he was a boy.
"Gramps is more 20 than he is 80," said
McMILLAN, explaining
how SMITH embraces change unlike most people his age.
The chances of being born on February 29 are one in 1,462. There
are roughly 20,000 "leapers" in Canada and more than four million
worldwide.
Dianne DAL
BELLO, a nurse at London Health Sciences Centre and
a leap year baby, is fascinated by the statistics.
But, as a child, she was less impressed with her February 29
birthday.
"At times I felt as though something was missing, even when I
celebrated a day early or a day late."
This year,
DAL
BELLO is celebrating her 11th birthday at age
44. She's looking forward to a special dinner with her husband
and the couple plans a trip to Dublin in June.
DAL
BELLO described that as her most extravagant birthday yet.
"My sweet 16 might stick out as a big one, too, but I'm not quite
there yet," she said with a laugh.

New Year's baby surprises parents
By Thulasi
SRIKANTHAN,
Staff
Reporter
He was barely six hours old, but yesterday the bouncing baby
boy was already the centre of media attention.
The as-yet-unnamed baby, born after putting Mom through two days
of labour, arrived seconds after midnight on New Year's Day to
become Toronto's first baby of 2007, weighing in at 7 pounds
and 13 ounces.
"I was nervous and scared," said the infant's 32-year-old father,
Patrick THANARATNAM, shortly after his first child arrived --
at about 40 seconds into the new year -- at Scarborough Grace
Hospital.
It was his first time holding a newborn,
THANARATNAM admitted.
"My hands were shaking."
Seconds after the Toronto baby made his debut, another boy was
born at Mississauga's Credit Valley Hospital -- officially at
12: 01 a.m. -- to become the 905 region's first arrival of 2007.
Komal and Surinder
PURI, who had been awaiting the arrival of
their baby for a day, were quick to dub him with the nickname
"Krish," after the traditional Hindu name Krishna.
Krish is their third child and second son.
"We are excited and pleasantly surprised about the timing," said
proud father Surinder, who admitted to watching television as
the baby arrived.
"As soon as they rang in the new year, the baby was born," he
said, adding he was watching revellers in New York's Times Square
celebrate as his wife was giving birth.
It's not just moms and babies who have it rough.
THANARATNAM, who said he had never picked up newborn babies because
he was afraid of dropping them, will also have to pay $100 to
his sister, who bet on the infant's New Year's Day arrival.
For his wife, Mary Julian
BENADICT, the anxiety all came from
giving birth for the first time. "But when I see his face now,
I am very happy," she said in Tamil.
When it comes to the baby's future, his mom said, "We are going
to educate him well, so he can become a doctor."
The couple, originally from Sri Lanka, was married more than
two years ago.
While THANARATNAM has lived in Toronto for about 15 years, his
wife moved to Canada in the fall of 2005.
In Mississauga, Krish's mom, Komal, said the delivery of her
third child wasn't as easy as the first two, adding she is still
in some pain.
"Delivering a baby is not easy," she said, adding she went into
labour at 5: 45 p.m. the night before.
Commenting on the days ahead, she said, "It's a boy, so I don't
know how much trouble it's going to cause me."
The couple plans a big celebration in about six weeks, and will
go to a temple for blessings.
As for Toronto's first baby, his name will in part be decided
by one of the baby's uncles and his baptism will take place in
another month.
And as for the baby becoming a doctor, the father says, "Her
wish is my wish."
