Now for the weird experience of Friday. While in Michael's getting supplies for the recipe card swap I started to have a leg nerve 'attack' (that is the only word I know to descibe what happens). It hurts to the point of me wanting to lay in the aisle, but I don't. Anyway I was, of course, near the back of the store, so out of NO WHERE and without prior thought I said 'Molly, let's just get up to the front of the store and we can sit on one of the benches for a few minutes to ease this up' I even shocked myself. Molly? I have never called the baby Molly before. I mean, I liked the name but it wasn't even on our list and I almost never use a girl's name or even 'she' to reference the baby. So if I have a girl her name will now be Molly Eva. My grandmother was Mary so Molly is very close to that and it would be in honor of her and my other grandmother Eva (again, as many of your know) Scott and I both agreed. I mean, why would I just come out and say that?

I just came across this again, and when I read it, I cried. It is such a neat story to tell Molly when she grows up. And, after reading what you wrote again, I *firmly* believe that both your grandmothers sent you the precious little angel daughter that you now have...that is why the name 'came to you' in the way you describe...b/c Molly's great-grandmothers put it in your heart!!

Love you!

That IS a great story, and Claud that was so sweet

Thank you very much Claud. I know my sister told my family the story in the hospital when they found out her name. I had been pretty secretive about names (many of you KNOW from personal experience how many opinions people have about names) so they had no ideas what I was thinking.

I KNOW that my grandmothers touched her heart before she was given me. I can feel it every time I hold her and say her name.

So sweet...
