Marina's First Birthday

We had a great time celebrating our cousin, Marina's first birthday. As a special Maltese (or Greek) tradition on the first birthday, the child chooses one object from a basket of many, that will represent their future career. Marina picked the ruler which symbolized a teacher or a career in math. Jack picked the Rosary and everyone was convinced that he was going to become a priest. Although Ray and I aren't too sure about that, we think it must be from all of the church that we go to regularly. :)
