Last night, my church celebrated her 35th anniversary. Attending the dinner has become a yearly affair ever since I was baptized. I truly rejoice with the church and I thank God for shaping Bethany to become a church where His Word serves as the foundation and cornerstone.

Personally, I have never liked attending dinner functions due to the need to make small talk with acquaintances. This dinner was rather different though, as my good friend Waifong attended with her baby son, Ernest. However, they were held up by the crazy weekend evening traffic in Orchard area. But of course when they finally did, Ernest quickly became the centre of our attention.

From http://www.thinkbabynames.com/, I discovered that the baby's name actually means "serious; determined; sincere." Mmmmm, come to think of it, the other Ernest we know, Ernest Vai (currently HOD of St Hilda's Primary), certainly possesses all these qualities. Do check out what your name means and see if it fits you.

Coming back to baby Ernest, he is a lovely boy; mild-tempered and charming in his quiet way. He has certainly grown since the days where he fell asleep in my husband's arms 2 years ago. Now, I can hardly carry him for 5 minutes without feeling any strain.


These pictures were taken 2 years back. Look how much he has grown!

May the Lord continue to watch over him and bless his life abundantly!
