Blessings For Shai

The sun was shining, it was beautifully warm with a little breeze, we were surrounded by our family and friends, we dined on a shared meal of delicious summer foods, more children then adults, face painting, beautiful music, an outfit made with love, flowers and splendid decorations, there were trees all around and a park not to far off. It was the perfect setting. Despite his being over 5months old, we held Shai's Welcoming Ceremony today. It was so fitting for his peaceful, contented nature. With each of the children we have held similar ceremony, to welcome and celebrate our children and to honour and celebrate the community that supports and loves them. We ask everyone invited to gift Shai with a written blessing which we compile for him in a special book, something he can perhaps find inspiration and love in as he grows and changes. While it is us giving him blessings, it is really us whom have been blessed with him and all the love which he brings and surrounds him.
















Shai's family; his two god parent's and their families.

Sounds like a beautiful day, and how wonderful to have such good friends to share it with.
