short, simple and to the point...

i was at a mary kay event tonight,
and a few people asked me if we had a name picked out for this little boy inside of me yet.
and it hit me that the truth is...
we've had this name picked out for 6 years now.

we always go back and forth with girl names, but our boys were set in place long before they were even born.
levi was levi from the moment i married brian, we knew our first born son would be levi.
when i was pregnant with alivia, if she was a boy her name was going to be shepard,
then when i was pregnant with nataley, she would have been shepard.

and finally, God is giving us our shepard.
little boy, i've been praying for you by name for 6 years now...

and after 6 years, i know...
our family is truly complete with you in it :)

fyi....
shepard means shepard,
and pierce was picked out because your daddy wanted to call you "shepard pie"
so i found something that rocked both our worlds...
it was only after we picked it out i learned that pierce means rock.
so you, my son whose not yet seen the light of this world...
shall be shepard that leads his flock to the rock...
you name speaks great things!!!! :)
