Welcome To The Christian World Mikee!

Here are the bits and pieces of a well celebrated occasion. It was an intimate gathering with our close friends and family. 

Welcome To The Christian World Mikee!

The name Mikee was derived from his first name Michael. There are 3 reasons why Michael.

1. I am a St. Michael the Archangel devotee, I truly believe in the power of his prayer.
2. My eldest son Franky was born on the feast of  St. Michael the Archangel.

3. In memory of my husband's younger brother named Michael who passed away a few days after he was born.

Our close friends graced us with their presence. Being able to celebrate with them is such a blessing. Most of them are the Godparents of Mikee.

The Baptismal Mass was short but it was filled with moments contemplating on the purpose of the Baptism, how sacred it is and the importance of our obligations to the Catholic Church and as parents. As always, my husband and I always make our celebrations simple yet worth remembering just like our wedding. Being in the presence of the people close to us and the people we love makes everything special. Lunch followed in a nearby Max's Restaurant.

Name and their Meanings

One of the things I shared on my 100 truths entry were names I/ we plan to give to our next children. As somebody who grew up with traditional background, the meaning of the name does matter. It will represent the person and it will reflect his/her personality and of course, how the parent was able to raise the child. We all know that name meaning is one of the most important thing to new moms and dads. I myself got pretty excited thinking of something nice.

I believe that names should be something to be proud of. May it be a common name, unique, or even the weirdest we could find. Every country, race, language, we're all different . It's the Being representing it, that's making each unique.
