It is pure joy to watch Adam and Vanessa together. He was quite apprehensive about the idea of a little girl. Finding that out early allowed us to adjust to the thought -- what do we do with a little girl?! We had names for little boys just because we thought for sure . . . I had names for little girls too, but Adam didn't settle for any of them. Our pregnancy was consumed with questions for names. And we'd to and fro over the short list we'd consider when she arrived. Vanessa was in this world for a day and half before receiving her name. Adam named her, giving her a first and middle name. Vanessa wasn't even a contender on the extremely short running list. What a gift to her . . . and didn't he do an awesome job -- is there anything more fitting than Vanessa Marie? Being daddy comes naturally for Adam. He spoils her in all the right ways and loves her immensely. He insists on lots of hugs, kisses, and rough-housing. He's truly a gift to her (and her mommy too.)
Doesn't it show?
