a name


Tyler and I have felt quite a responsibility in naming this little girl. And--it has taken us some time in doing it. We made lists, pondered names for months, crossed off names, added names, etc. We have had some very sweet experiences in naming this little precious angel and have felt quite led and directed in giving her the name Abigail Ella Rushton.

Abigail means 'joy of my father'/'my father's joy'. She has truly been her father's and her mother's joy from the moment we found out she would be joining our family here on earth.

Day after day she continues to be our joy---.
