What's in a Name?


Introducing Grace Kay Jacobs!!!!


We are all finally in agreement on a name. We were successful in continually pushing off the persistent volunteers at the hospital looking for birth certificate info until this morning when Grace and Mama came home! Yippee!! As first time parents so many years ago it seems we were kind of over come with the pressure to get a name chosen to keep the volunteers at bay, so we felt a bit rushed with our first. This time we were definitely not rushed at such an important decision.

So what is in a name? No pressure on the parents right? It is just the name your child will have for all time, answer to on that all important first day of school and may even determine seating order. Ick.

Well regardless we are pleased to introduce Grace. I was not really "hip" on the name until she was born and I first laid eyes on her, and I immediately thought to my self "this is our little Gracie!" So for me my very distant second choice leapfrogged into the lead with out any problem. The kids were in need of a little bit of gentle persuasion, but we have now all agreed.

As always we appreciate all of you that have sent good thoughts, prayers and messages our way.
