The Name Game

Catherine's mom recently gave us a copy of Heaven is for Real that her neighbor passed along to her. I've read about 2/3 of it so far. The father retells his little boy's story of his trip to Heaven and back. They are relieved to learn that their daughter, who they lost while pregnant, was adopted by God and is waiting for them in Heaven. The father asks what her name is and the little boy replies that she said you and mom never gave her a name. The parents later question each other which one will get to Heaven first so that they can name her.

I'm so glad we agreed on a name early on for Battley. This was Catherine's grandma's name so it was an easy selection.

Last week on MLK day Hayden and I spent time as a family with Catherine and Battley instead of deer hunting. Look what we caught at the baby store...a preemie outfit and monogrammed hat. I pray that we will be able to bring her home wearing this one!
