Born

Born in a city in Southern China, I was first weighed nearly 7 lbs.  C-section as my mom was kind of weak. According to Mrs. T, my mom, it was quite a scary process of giving birth, so she would not have another child. However, my dad had different reasons for why they did not have more children. Well well, they are always saying different things.

100 days after I was born,  a 100th-day ceremony, which is a local tradition, was held in a local restaurant. Many people came to visit me while I could only strictly close my eyes and sleep in my mom’s arms.

My parents were really busy working to raise a new family, so I was raised in a big family including my grandparents from both sides, and also my auties. Obviously, I was too young to memorize such early things. I knew about the fact via my parents, other family members, and some old photos.
