Today is Bryant's lunar birthday. According to tradition:
1) Eat drumstick - symbolised more food to come
2) Pick an item from a tray - to see what the kid will do in the future (items: calculator, ruler, pen, scissors, ang bao, red eggs, can't remember lioa.. ;P)
3) Wear new shoes and step on ang gu kuey (can't remember exactly what it signifies, symbolised a new beginning for Bryant?)
MIL said Wai Po must buy a set of new clothes and a pair of shoes for Bryant. She said this is the 'Hokkien Law'. But mummy said she can't buy because FIL just passed away so she will give a BIG red packet to Bryant to represent the gifts.
Anyway, we only did tradition one. Bryant enjoys licking and eating the drumstick. :)
