Ang unang liham kay Beybi

Dear Beybi,

How is it going there floating inside my tummy? Did you like Gramma's Ginataan Bilo Bilo? You are 4 months in my tummy now. Our beautiful OB checking you every month said we will find out your gender on September 2. Tatay and Nanay are so excited, we've been thinking of your name.

Your ultra sound said you will come out on January 11. That's 1-11-11. If you come out on time, we might give you the name: Sikatuna Leon, Una or Uno will be your nickname. But your cousin, Baby Tomato has a very cute thought: He doesn't like UNO or UNA. He thought you will always be first in everything.

If we miss January 11, We really want Leon Joaquin or Joaquina Leon. That's from your Nanay's Lolo Leon and Lola Kinang. But your cousin, Kuya Tomato keeps on calling you Pablo and Ate Lira is echoing already. Maybe you'll be baptized as Leon Pablo since Tatay doesn't want you to be called PJ or JP if we put together Pablo + Joaquin.

We really haven't decided yet. There are still other names popping:

Patani---------Lukas
Sinagtala------Isaak
Manila--------Baguis

There's so much to be considered. Gramma wants you to have a catholic name. And after all this brainstorming, Grampa will always have the last say.

We hope whatever name we will give you, will make you happy and contented with it.
Keep floating!!!

Love,
Nanay
