Cute Sage and Haven and an oh so round mama. |
I wanted each of our kiddos to have a special name: a first name with real meaning and a middle name that belonged to a special someone in our family. Shane, on the other hand, has only two rules for names: easy to say and easy to spell.
Sage Elea
Sage- one who is wise
Elea- Shane had the great idea to take the first initial of the name of each of my sisters who have died and create a name: Elena, Laura and Elizabeth Anne. My sisters were each so precious and such an important part of our family and I'm happy we could honor them in a small way.
Micah Elias
Micah- one who is like God (boy has this proven to be fitting...he has the patience of Job)
Elias- Shane's maternal grandpa was a wonderful father and grandpa. We knew he was coming to the end of his life and wanted to honor a man who did so much good.
Haven Theresa
Haven- A safe place
Theresa- When my parents married neither family was very happy nor supportive of the young marrieds. Luckily my Dad's aunt Ricky (Theresa) loved them and opened her home to them.
P.S. Shane likes to tell people that I wanted a girl just so I could use the name "Haven." And you know what? It's true.
