Kavi's 28th Day!!

Part of the Malayalee culture is to celebrate the 28th (month) day of a newborn's life. This is the time the baby gets his name. Since Kavi was born here, however, we had to give a name in the hospital for vital records. The eye make-up is to protect the child from evil eye. The father's father holds the baby and whispers the name in his ear and everyone puts pieces of jewelry on him.
