The Transformation

The custom of waiting until a boy is 3 years before cutting his hear is a wonderfully spiritual affair. According to Kabballah a boy is like a tree, in following the tradition not to eat fruit from a tree the first 3 years, symbolically some do not cut the boys hair until the third birthday.
Shmuel is the only boy in this family of 4 girls and I got to document the whole day. Here are some snapshots.
