The blessing way for Nitya went wonderfully! We had about a dozen women and five kids gathered in our living room. We sang devotional songs of protection for her and the baby, played fun games, and painted her belly. I really liked the neclace we made for her. Everyone said a prayer while adding a bead. She went into labor later in the evening and had a baby boy at home in the water that night! It was a truly wonderful experience, and I'm so thankful everything went so well.
I have to give lots of credit to my wonderful husband. He did so much to make everything go well. He prepared food, decorated and rearranged furniture, tied ballons on the road, and even took Haridas for the afternoon, plus worked in between all of this! They had some good, fun, father-son bonding time hiking, while I was able to host a party without taking care of a toddler that needs to take a nap, which was very helpful. We all had a great St. Patrick's Day!
