Jay and I have had our future babies' names picked out for years. Since shortly after we were married. In fact, I was well aware even BEFORE we were married that should we have a son someday, he would be Jay's namesake. And to follow along those lines, we decided that should we someday have a daughter, she would also receive family names. So, without further ado, here are the amazing women whom our daughter will be named after:
Martha Cora Priest Waddell (Jay's grandmother)
Donna Mae Brown Jackson (Denise's grandma)
These ladies mean the world to us. We both grew up living only a few hours from our maternal grandparents, and we were both lucky that our parents made sure we spent as much time as possible with them. Because of this, our grandmothers have played a very large role in our lives, and thus contributed greatly to our goals in life, our attitudes and mannerisms, and our shared view that family is more important than anything else. We love you Grandmother and Grandma, and we're looking forward to carrying on your names, and hopefully some part of your persons and personalities, with your great-granddaughter!
Our daughter will have a very significant, strong, and traditional name.
She is our Cora Mae Lindsay.
