Red Egg and Ginger Party Invitation

Do you know it is customary to celebrate a new arrival in the family by holding a "Red Egg and Ginger Party," when the child is between one to three months old in China? Well, you don't have to wait for that long if you're not living in Chinese, but you can still pick up any cute greeting cards in local party store, and write something like this:

"The egg, symbolizing fertility is boided hard, then dyed red, for good luck will surely be in the baby's charge. In [baby shower date], a red egg party must be thrown. We welcome the little one to its new home."

Background information: Eggs are a symbol of fertility in Chinese culture. Hard-boiled eggs dyed red are featured, along with candied ginger. According to some sources, an even number of eggs means a daughter has been born, while an odd number represents a son.
