Cu4tro Cantos

The Four Songs of Life

Cu4tro Cantos is the new Ala Eh Blog. Since I cannot provide pure Batangueño articles, I decided a revamp of the site, which I think is more appropriate. Cu4tro Cantos refers to the four members of the Cantos Family. In spanish, Cuatro means Four, and Cantos means Songs.

Baby Ley’s debut online appearance

I was about to sell these pics for a magazine cover but we did not agree with the price. So I will just publish them for free. :)

How do you give names to your babies

Like I just announced on my previous post, we just had our new baby. Like Maria Arwen Sofia, she also has three names on her first name, Laura Eowyn Ysabel.

Maria Arwen Sofia has her nickname as the reverse of her initials, SAM. But this time, we’ll call Laura Eowyn Ysabel as LEY. We have actually planned to use the reverse as well but it will just sound not too good as “yell”. We think that it might confuse her when she starts to learn following instructions. What if we say “Yel. Yel.”, then she might yell at us. Just kidding. And besides, Lei or Ley has been Leah’s nickname for her friends. But all her relatives call he ‘Honey’. Why? She’s just sooooo sweet.

You might ask where did we get the name. Well, we just thought of them. Only Eowyn has an explanation so far. Like Arwen, she’s also a character in the famous Lord of the Rings novel. The other 2 names, we just found them cute. :)

Ley is just 4 days old but many have commented that she’s gonna have a hard time to write her name on test papers when she go to school. But I heard that schools now allow nicknames on test papers except on National exams and Entrace exams. I’m not sure about it though.
