Red Dawn
This morning, Wendy's parents came over to commemorate Eloise's 30th day of existence. The little one made it this far, so now she's legit. Time for some Old World traditions...
Wendy's mom rolled a dyed red egg over Eloise's head. Red is luck, eggs are fertility, etc.
Then some hair was shaved off. Back in the day, she would have been turned into a skinhead!
After that, there was tons of food. Chicken is a typical birthday thing. There might have been some ginger somewhere. We already did the pig's feet thing, so that was out of the way. (There were some veggies and tofu for me, too.)
Where's the little tiger hat? Is it okay for Wendy to stop bathing in secret/when her parents aren't around? How can we make these eggs last until Easter?

Congratulations! I meant to ask about Eloise when you guys came to talk but in all the hoopla I forgot. She looks great and you've survived a month - well done! It's a big deal actually.
why do we have to be so secretive with parents?? martin and i had to sneak out of the house to take walks as my mom would get REALLY mad.
Hey Jenny, you know that you're a parent now and Margot is already keeping secrets from you, right?
