moses

when mommy and daddy first started dating in 2005, mommy went with daddy's family to philadelphia, pennsylvania {this is the city your daddy was born in} for your paternal great grandmother's 90th birthday. your great grandmother is an amazing woman of prayer spending hours every day praying for her family, the church and even for the president and our nation. ever since your daddy was young, your great grandmother always called your daddy 'moses' which was her special korean/christian name for him. mommy and daddy thought it would be special for your korean name to officially be 'moses' with much love and respect for daddy's grandmother.

this is a photo of your daddy, grandfather peter, your great grandmother and uncle james in front of your great grandfather's grave site. when daddy and uncle james were younger, your great grandfather took care of both of them full time. your great grandfather was known to be one of the classiest men sewing/tailoring suits for the young boys, having them listen to classical music and truly shaping them to who they are today.

mommy really wishes i had the opportunity to meet and know daddy's grandfather--it would have been such a joy for him to meet you baby owen! for now, we will remember his legacy through grandfather peter and the fond memories your daddy has of your great grandfather.
