Currently...

Currently, Baby's name is Latyssa Wong Ji-Hyun, 黄紫暄。

i say "currently", coz just recently, she was also 黄灵熙 and before that, 黄琳熙 and 黄玲熙 and 黄智恩。
She was also Cherish and Cheryl and Joy. Eons ago, in my own mind, she was Love, Peace and ermmmmm.... Trinity (during the Matrix era). I never brought those names up to munch coz i'm sure he'd never agree.

Anyway, Latyssa means joy. I pray for her to not just know joy, but also bring joy. Not just happiness, but real joy that transcends situations, joy that is from the lord.

Whenever i pray for Baby, i pray that she'll be a passionate lover of God. The kind of person who deeply feels Songs of Solomon. The kind of person who wouldn't count the cost of being a Follower because she is too caught up with being a Lover. (which started us on a hunt for "Love"-ish names, like Cheryl and Love).
I also pray for her to be such a loving person that she'd bring God's healing and love and acceptance to others. You know, the kind of person that everyone would feel comfortable with. The kind who wouldn't bitch, wouldn't judge, but would simply brighten up everybody's life just by her sweet, loving nature. That even the most unconfident, defeated soul would find a touch of peace and love and acceptance through her.
Of coz, i pray for more frivolous things as well, like being pretty and smart and healthy. =) Munch prays that she'd be athletic and musically inclined.
I want her to be a dancer, and secretly i hope she won't play hockey. (hehe... after all my hairline cracks and bruises, i don't wanna experience the heartaches i put Daddy through!)
I hope she gets into PLMGS, but i'm not in the 2km range.
Well, she can get into St Nicks then. St Nicks is good too.
I think i may have to get a maid after all... when Kor has a kid too, or if i have another baby. Though we probably should install surveillance videos, after hearing about how some maids mistreat babies.

Hehe... yeah, these are the stuff that a mum-to-be thinks about.
That, and water retention and bloated legs.
And sometimes i think about how great it'd be if i could unzip my tummy, play with her a bit, then put her back in again when i'm busy or she's crying or when it's not fun anymore.

And i spend a considerable amount of time hunting down misplaced items as well...
memory really bad these days.

Oh but i WRITE it down when i assign homework, so don't even try!
