A baby is born:
“We felt overwhelmed with happiness and there were a few tears of joy. It’s a truly special moment holding your baby for the first time and one we’ll never forget.”
“Home is where the heart is just got a whole new meaning,” she said in a public announcement. “We’re looking forward to making the most of these first few weeks before I return to my duties as mayor and [husband Kanin Clancy] takes on the important duties of full-time daddy.”
Tapsell said the pair “wanted a unique name” that honoured their daughter’s Māori heritage while also acknowledging how special she was to them.
The baby's name is Kahumoa, which translates as “most distinguished cloak” and came from the words kakahu (cloak) and the moa bird, which Tapsell said was the most distinguished species of bird during its time. The moa, an ostrich sized bird, became extinct about 800 years ago because of human hunting.
... Just a human interest story of new life for child and parents.
