Pregnancy: 40 weeks - Zachariah is Born!

Today is exactly 40 weeks for baby Ming...
We are both proud to introduce to the world our son,

Zachariah Lai Kheng Ming

Born: Monday 08/09/08 @5:12pm
Weight: 3.4kg
Head Circumference: 36cm
Length: 49cm

Meaning of Name:

> Zachariah - Hebrew for 'God Remembers'/'Remembered by the Lord'
> Kheng (Cantonese) & Jing 劲 (Chinese) - meaning strong, unyielding , tough & powerful

Why we chose this name?:
We thought his name was very appropriate to our situation & also because we want Zachariah to live out the meaning of his name in his journey of life. Here's more explanation:

1) Mr M has always wanted a son before he turned his big 40 & God remembered and honoured him 15 days before 'his life begins...'
2) Mr M has always promised me from day 1 since we got together that 'He will make sure his son will look after mummy in her older years...' & once again - God remembered and honoured this.
3) We know & speak faith into the future that in all of Zach's life, God will always remember him in every single step of the way through good & bad times and Zach too will know that the God that the Ming household serves will never leaver him nor forsake him.
4) His yea yea chose his Chinese name 'Kheng' - because he wanted him to be powerful, tough & strong in everything that he does.

Mr & Mrs M praise & give thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ for giving us such a beautiful gift...
