    Really appreciate Tom. How beautifully you narrate the experience. I live in uk and south indian.. let’s truly say it’s not we south indians accepted you but it’s you who accepted us and our culture so beautifully. And this why the journey between two hearts is so beautiful… lots of love and respect for you . And thanks for showing the Chennai. Miss my place …

    This is so beautiful! As a Nigerian Yoruba we don’t have much of a pre-childbirth tradition/celebration but we have an elaborate naming tradition. It so cool to see Kalpa’s family usher her into motherhood this way. It makes me want to do something similar for my daughter. Tom is a gem in how he values his wife’s culture. I can’t wait to see them celebrate naming Nigerian style. What a blessing to be able to enjoy both cultures through your lives. Thank you for sharing. Praying for a safe and healthy delivery for you guys!

    Hello Kalpa and Tom:
    This was one of the most beautifully put together videos you guys have done! I love the Indian music and the music was rightfully chosen.
    I felt kalpa’s sadness to leave her family and having to go back to her home. But there was another beautiful family waiting there, Tom’s.
    You have so much family and wherever you go they are with you Kalpa.
    As well you have CZcams family with you on your journey together.
    Love you Guys!

    This baby shower, If I am not wrong is traditionally called Simantoyana/Simanta, one of the 16 Samskaras of every Hindu's life( practiced since the Vedic eras about 1800-2000BC).
    It signifies prosperity for the household, unending love from husband/in laws and safe delivery. So glad, you went the traditional way too, we would also like to see more celebrations in the future.
    May God bless you all 🙏.
