The symbols of fertility are on a show before handing out to each lady.
Women discussing the nature's blessings and the labour pains and sharing stories of their experiences.
Tambul for all the women. An honor for a young fertile woman. This plate holds a blouse piece, betel leaves and nuts, green bangles, packets of haldi-kumkum, flowers, a small packet of chivda, puffed rice ladoos and chaklis.
Its been a long time since I have been trying to post this one. Finally decided to make it pictorial due to a time crunch. The baby is on the way any moment and I didn't want to post this one after the baby is here!
P.S: Another friend Manisha delivered an angel on Saturday and we went to see her. It was so exciting! New borns have such an effect on all of us. I am waiting to play with 2 more babies. Ranjini's first or Varsha's first am wondering :). Will it be all girls? They can have a gang of their own like we do.
How beautiful.I had 2 kids in US, nothing like this happened to me at all and I have to cope alone both times! That's life for us here!:))
ReplyDeleteGood luck to her.
thanks for sharing the lovely occasion! I miss India looking at all this.
ReplyDeleteAsha even in cities like Mumbai now these clebrations don't happen and it was quite exciting for me too. Sure I pass on your wishes to her.
ReplyDeleteYeah India and your people await your visit Sharmi :).
