What's in a Name?

Happy Monday, y'all!
How was your weekend?  Have Spring sprung where you are yet?  If not, hope it will soon!  I'm loving all the sunshine we are getting right now.  *heart eyes*

Well!  Here's a fresh set of names for you, m'dears.  :]

Enjoy.

  1. Unfortunately spring has sprung here and now everyone and their mother is sick. Blah. But at least it's not raining, so that's something. It's been so long since we last saw the sun!

    I love this list of names!! I think Sitara is my favorite.

    1. Oh dear! So sorry, but I suppose that's part of it. I agree about the lack of rain---I've been praying our Lord keeps it at bay. I've so missed the sunshine!

      Thanks, girlie! Sitara is so lovely ^_^

To each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass, and a book of rules,
And each must make, ere life is flown,
A stumbling block or a stepping stone.
