Names Names Names

Dear new baby,

I have been pondering different names for you, which can be a difficult task when you are attempting names from both sexes. Though the chances of you being a wee lad is much higher than a wee lass, I always seem to swerve toward the female names. Probably because they are much easier to come up with than boy names.

Some of the names that I have thought of, which I have not put across to your daddy yet (I would like to keep the hope alive before he veto's them!), are Autumn, Lotus, Jade and my all time favourite Leife. I love that name. I also see that there is a foliage theme happening. Oh nature, I guess I just cannot get you out of my mind!

Your daddy has come up with two names so far, both are very pretty, Kaia and Mia. I have already determined that there will be no double M's so Mia is looking unlikely (Mia Mckittrick, is sounds too made up, though the name itself is lovely). Both of us have been trying on Kaia since Rohan, I like it, but it just doesn't seem right.

We will most definitely have to meet you before we make any final decisions. Not only to determine the sex, but also to try the name on for size, make sure that is suits you. It is so hard to be the people to put an instant and lifelong label on such an innocent baby!

Well beautiful Birdy, keep kicking and I will see you soon............

Love Mama
