Starring Jonah as Kintaro

Kasumi is so creative! For Boys' Day, May 5, she created a little Kintaro costume for her baby Jonah, who just turned 4 months. Kintaro, (金太郎), or "Golden Boy" is a boy hero from Japanese folklore..hence, the character for gold on Jonah's chest. A child of superhuman strength, he was raised by a mountain hag on a mountain. He became friendly with the animals of the mountain, and was able to overcome the terror of the mountain. These days in Japan, it's a custom to put up a Kintarō doll on Boy's Day in the hope that boys will become equally brave and strong. Thanks Wikipedia, for your help with these details.
