V

Ikinararangal namin ang magkaroon ng anak na babae. Ang mga babae ang nagpapaikot ng mundo.

Ipinangalanan namin siyang V., bilang katotohanan. F., hango kay Pope Francis, at sa character na si Franny, likhang-isip ni J.D. Salinger. Hinangaan namin ang krusada ni Pope Francis laban sa katiwalian at kasakiman. May katangian naman si Franny na nilarawan bilang "disenchanted with the selfishness and inauthenticity she perceives around her."

Mabuhay ka, anak. Maligayang pagdating sa ating kamangha-manghang, komplikadong mundo. Walang hanggang pagmamahal sayo. Simula ngayon, wala tayong katapusan.

We are honored to have a baby girl. Women make the world go round. 

We named her V., as the truth. F., after Pope Francis, and J.D. Salinger's fictional character, Franny. We admired the crusade of Pope Francis against corruption and greed. Franny was disenchanted with the selfishness and inauthenticity she perceived around her. 

Have a life worth living, anak. Welcome to our complicated, fascinating world. Infinite love to you. Beginning today, we will never end.
