What's in a name...

One thing I had secretly dreaded about having another boy was to come up with a name that Bobby and I BOTH loved.  We already decided on a girls name YEARS ago that we both still adore, so that part seemed easy if that was what God chose to give us.  When I heard boy, my mind immediately spun to his name and hasn't quit spinning until we finally decided this past weekend as we had some time together away.  We decided on Brooks Haylor Qualls for our son.  We both adore it.  One of the things we love most about it is that it gives all THREE men in our family the same BHQ initials.  I really believe that will be so special to them some day.  Bobby has many engraved things that will be fun to pass on to BOTH sons and not just the one that bears his name.  And of course, one of the sweetest things to me is that it gives this son the namesake of my precious Grumpies (Haylor) who you all know I adored.  And Brooks will share the middle name Haylor with my precious brother and nephew.  I just LOVE family names and names that bear meaning.  So, we are SUPER excited for Brooks to make his arrival and to be able to pray for him, BY NAME.  Now if we could just get this house built in time....
