The Name of My Daughter

I would have given anything to find a good christain husband to have my own family. I have no regrets though. When I found out I was pregnant. It was early on. I loved her so much I knew that day in my lonly apparentment I was carrying Elizabeth. My gandma is Helen Elizabeth. I always told her..."If I have a daughter I will name her Elizabeth after you. " This is a name passed down thtough generations on both my moms side and dads side. Rose is to honer her dads side. I knew he wouldn't be appart of us because of his choices. He was very emotionally abusive plus other stuff I won't share. Stewart is to honor my dad's. Name. My dad was a good man. I deeply loved him. Lizzy was adored by him. I've accepted that I might alwsys be single. My daughter is my life and I want to be there 100./. For her. I don't want my attention split. I'm trying to trust God will provide.

You have your trust in the right place. Blessings on your day... Lovely names. My kid is Rose... My former told me it could not be rose as her hair would not be red. I told him, roses are not all red. :) So I chose. God Bless you and your daughter. A sweet and lovely write indeed. Excellent power of words. Ann
