He turned 4 months old according to the lunar calendar yesterday and the MIL went to great lengths to cook up a storm and did some prayers. Followed by this "ceremony" of sorts to induct Jake to the "world of food".
The little man wore a chain of "money biscuits" |
It was a bit tricky tying the string and (haha) guess he wasn't too happy about it |
A giant chicken drumstick for the little man |
A lot of it may be superstitions, you may say, but hey. It doesn't hurt the child and it's sometimes fun to keep up with these traditions, especially if it makes the elders happy. So according to this ceremony, my little man is now ready to devour food ("ready", but I'm not anxious to start him on semi-solids till he's 6 months), and he will breeze through teething.
Awesome!
