This is my son, Marcus Gabriel at seven months old.
Though his name is of ancient Roman pre-Christian origin, my son's name should be associated with the Gospel writer Mark the Evangelist. And the suffix name Gabriel refers to the angel of God that apeared to Mary.
My wife has been referring to him by his petname Tatus. 
"Si Tatus ang lakas uminom ng gatas."
"Si Tatus tinotopak na naman."
"Si Tatus ang lakas umiyak, ayaw magpatulog."
That's how my wife would refer to our son in her usual SMS everytime I checked-on how he is doing. I don't know how it came to be that way. Pero para wala ng mahabang diskusyon, nakiki-Tatus na din ako...
"Hon, musta na si Tatus?"
Last month, Tatus went on sickbay and was diagnosed with amoebiasis. He was confined for almost 10 days at two different hospitals. We were both so worried of what might happen to him. But with much prayer everything went well. Praise God!
Soon after that, the old folks has been harassing my wife regarding the reason why my son got sick. They were saying that it is because Tatus hasn't been baptised yet. With those kind of people around her, my wife got so paranoid and so worried that Tatus might even be possessed with evil spirits which according to her are very prevalent in their place.
So finally, after the long wait, Tatus was dedicated to the Lord last April 19 at the San Miguel Christian Church in Bulacan. With Tatus in the picture above was the Officiating Pastor Wilmor Trinidad.

WELCOME TO THE CHRISTIAN WORLD TATUS!
