My Brother's Baby
My brother got married last October, and he will be a father this September. This is the first grand baby in my family, my parents are very happy, so am I. There are something we will do for celebrate the new baby.First, we protect my brother's wife as we can. We help her do housekeep we can do such as move something heavy, cut something during this ten month of her pregnant. My mother also cooks many tonics for her, because we believe a strong baby comes from a health mother. Second, we will buy many gifts before she gives birth to the baby such as many clothes from baby's to children's, some stuffs help her feed the baby, even though we don't know the sex of the baby yet. Also, we will buy the gift to the mother to thank her; I plan to buy the necklace and bracelet to my brother's wife. In addition, we will have a celebrate party after one month of the baby's birthday; we will invite all friends and family members to come to our house. This is the first time that baby show up with everyone, so the baby needs to stay in the room before this party. Everyone will give the baby gift such as gold or money, and we will feedback everyone traditional food--oily rice. If the sex of baby is male, we will give everyone two more eggs.
In short, we are very happy that we will have a new member in our family. We hope both the mother and baby are healthy and happy.
I am sure everything will be fine to your wife's brother and the baby. I am glad to learning more about your culture. In Brazil when the babies born we usually go to the hospital to visit the baby and its parents and give them a small gift, and the men go outside to smoke a big cigar together even if they dont smoke...rs
ReplyDeleteI think that what you do for your brother's wife is so nice. In my country(Saudi Arabia), we do that invite people (relatives and close friends) to celebrate of the new baby born after a week, and they bring gifts or money for the mother and the baby. We feed them also a traditional saudi food (meat and rice). I hope that the baby and your brother's wife will be fine.
