John & Jennifer Visits

Uncle John & his wife Jennifer came to visit me & Joey the other night. Actually Uncle John is not that old, only 40 plus, but I have been calling him Uncle John since young (and I really mean young, because I first got to know him in my previous church when I was about 12 years old). And he is a rather special 'uncle' or friend to me because he was the one who gave me my name, Klessis.

I remembered I got baptised when I was about 15 years old, and I wanted to have a nice Christian name. So I asked Uncle John, who was like a youth pastor to the youth fellowship then, to pray for a Christian name for me. He came to me about 2 weeks later and told me that the name that God gave to him for me was Klesis, which meant 'called to salvation' in hebrew. I liked the name immediately because I thought it was so classy. But because the spelling looks weird, I added another 's' to the spelling to make it Klessis. Over the years, I have countless people who told me that my name is very nice & special. All thanks to Uncle John. : )

Uncle John & Jennifer have been a great blessing to us too. Not only did they pass us their baby's cot, high-chair and stroller, they also gave us really super cute clothes and blanket from Osh Kosh B'Gosh when they visited us. We're so blessed to have friends like them in our lives!

Here's Jennifer carrying Joey and her really cute younger daughter, Evangeline. I hope Joey will be as cute as her when she grows up! See her conversation with her mama:

Mama: Evangeline, who's the King?
Evangeline: Papa!
Mama: Then who is mei mei (evangeline)?
Evangeline: The Queen!
Mama: Then how about Mama?
Evangeline: Mama is Princess!
Mama: .............
