President Traian Basescu and his wife on Sunday attended the first anniversary of their godson, Carol Ferdinand, the son of Prince Paul and Princess Lia of Romania. According to the Romanian tradition, on tier first anniversary boys receive their first ‘haircut’, task which, according to Libertatea newspaper, was assigned to the president. Another Romanian custom is to present the child with a trey with a few items on it and let him/her pick one or several. The prince was reportedly interested in Traian Basescu’s fountain pen as well as in a toy stethoscope.
