Your mother named me but that is kind of special in its own way. I remember when we were told of your naming and how Joe and Ann decided. I love the name Josephine Annabelle. She’s absolutely adorable. Those eyes, that smile, the hair! From a grand-auntie far away who misses little babies.

Thanks for sharing the story of Josephine and her name’s genesis. I resonate especially with your experience of discovering the inescapable, inevitable name for her. My girls’ names, as different as they are, embody their personalities perfectly and with such depth of meaning and history. And I worried too, that the right nickname wouldn’t emerge, but of course, it did. Can’t wait to see how this precious small person gets bigger!
