a few blessings.

A couple of weeks ago, my friend Soujanya invited me to her daughter's "Sari Ceremony". This is Sri Vaishnavi. She will be 13 soon and this was a celebration for her friends and family to bless her. It was so amazing and beautiful to watch. I think it's wonderful to start a girl's teenage years with so many positive thoughts and prayers sent her way. Maybe by the time Emma is this age, I will have thought of my own version of this.

I was so impressed by the beautiful saris and jewelry.







The guests were invited to say a blessing while sprinkling rice. I even got a turn.

Soujanya, thank you so much for letting me be a part of this night!
