Names



Jory was reading his children’s Bible.  He’s reading the Old Testament to us.  He got to a word that he didn’t recognize so he paused and started to sound it out.

“Hey, that’s my name,” he exclaimed, when he pronounced the name.

“Yes, it is,” I agreed. 

It would have been nice to launch into a story about his name coming from the Bible but I couldn’t because I’m not 100% sure about that.  I knew I liked the name when Shane and I were starting a family and when I look at the last update of my baby name list before I left for college, his name is already on there.  Maybe my liking the name came from the Bible and maybe not.  Who knows if I’ll ever remember, but it’s nice to know he now knows his name is in the Bible.
