  3. The first one is not superstition but a mother's love.

    1. Kalpana, you are correct.It is mother's love no doubt. But superstition it IS. If the child has not prepared for the exams, will a spoonful of curd enable him to get good marks?

  4. I was never encouraged to follow any kind of superstition at home and hence never knew about them, till much later in life!! :) This has been a fun prompt day and enjoying them all!! ;) I am amazed by the number of superstitions that exist!! :)

    1. Though a superstition, it reflects a mother's love.
