Surjit Kaur is standing near a dining table celebrating her grandson, Tevon's, 2nd birthday, with her family. She is wearing a beige-coloured salwar suit, a black vest, and gold bangles on her wrist. Surjit Kaur has a chunni, which is a headcover that many Punjabi women wear as a sign of respect and modesty. Tevon Singh is Gurcharan Kaur's, Surjit Kaur's daughter, son. Surjit Kaur's husband, Gurdev Singh, is standing to the left, wearing a suit and a pagg, headwear made up by cloth; typically called a turban.
