Dear Friends and Family,
We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible support we experienced at our baby shower. The outpouring of love and joy in the room was truly heartwarming. Whether you were able to attend in person, wished to be there but couldn't, or sent thoughtful gifts for Quest's arrival, we want to express our heartfelt thanks. With each passing day, as we inch closer to welcoming Quest home, our hearts overflow with even more appreciation for your unwavering generosity. The baby shower was just the start of this beautiful journey, and we can't wait to share more moments with you.
With love,
Lamar + Lamara
By definition, a quest represents a long and challenging search for something. Lamara's pregnancy hasn't been the easiest; it has been arduous and draining. However, just like a quest, we know that the treasure awaiting us at the end of this journey is our baby boy, and he will be more than worth it.
Our baby boy has been astonishingly active in the womb. His constant kicking, turning, and rolling movements create the impression that he's already on his own adventure in there, embarking on a quest to reach us.
The phonetic spelling of "Quest" is "kwest." Despite beginning with a "Q," when spoken, it sounds like a "K." This is why "Kyan" and "Quest" fit so perfectly together when said aloud, just like they will as brothers.
Statistical uniqueness was essential in choosing his name. Only one person in every 5 million Americans is named "Quest." To put that into perspective, there are roughly 27,100 people named "Mark" for every 5 million Americans.
We ask ourselves the same question :)
