Names

Since the girls have been home for over eight weeks, it's time to make name decisions and apply for their Michigan birth certificates.

M has asked that her middle name be either "___" or "___," in honor of her Ethiopian Grandmother.

E came up with "Livinia" - the snotty girl from the movie, "The Little Princess." She then pretends to be like that charactor until her famous dimples show, and she breaks her act with giggles. A better option we're discussing is "Sarah," or a version of her Ethiopian Mom's name, "Adanu."

For L, my favorite is "L ___." L's two favorites reflect her favorite English words - "L Hamburger" and "L Chocolate Cake."
