Had lunch with a husband and wife friend on Sunday. They announced to us on Thursday that they were pregnant and I am so genuinely happy for them. It took them 5 years and 4 miscarriages to get to this stage. I even began praying for them to conceive early this year.

It was truly amazing their testimony and story of how they got pregnant and I know that it is truly the miracle of their prayers that they are able to have a smooth natural pregnancy. It was so fun to see them both getting excited over baby stuff and little baby shoes.
This weekend has just been an amazing weekend and God just showing us how sovereign and all caring He is.

I was just thinking about how Bakong would address my siblings and I really wanted him to call them by the traditional Hokchia titles so as to preserve the tradition. Now a days, more and more of our family's children just call out a generic title followed by the person's name as to differentiate them eg. Yi yi Qiao bor Yi yi Yu......
I really wanted Bakong to call my siblings first aunt, second aunt, third aunt and so on in Hokchia just like how we address our Uncles and Aunties, so here is what they are gonna be called:
1. SB - Duayii
2. EP - Duayii Riong
3. SY - Sayii
4. DC - Siyii
5. SK - Nguyii or Muiyii
6. Kiu Kiu
Hehehe, it does sound like some bad case of tongue twisting but I really think that we shoudl preserve tradition and I would be really honoured if I was addressed similarly by my nephews and nieces....
PS: I am feeling kinda upset that my doughnut class scheduled on Tuesday has been postpone.
