3rd year Pic 360 - Oct 19 2011 Day 4 -First day at mom Lakshmi's home. As per Indian customs Lakshmi has gone to her parents' house with the baby. This is an old tradition which is carried on even now. The main reason was that the new mother would get rest at her mom's house whereas at husband's house she would have to chip in with work. The mother and the baby come back to husband's house after 40 days. We all are counting days! This was shot by son Jay on Leica D-Lux 5 and is SOOC.
