"Mom, does Bryanna like the name Gabriella?"

2/11/2015

We have been blessed with a baby girl, Gabriella Lace, and no doubt Alec helped bring her to us. She is so sweet, adorable and just a dream. She has brought genuine smiles back to our lips (though sometimes they are smiles through tears.. the so happy yet missing Alec so much tears).She has brought joy and love back to us. 


We chose the middle name Lace because I wanted to use Alec for her middle name and name her after him.. but since it is a boy name, I switched the letters around and asked Keith and Cassidy how about "Lace" and they instantly smiled and loved it.
 So here is the very special story of how Gabriella got her name:


 One day Alec said to me, "Mom, does Bryanna like the name Gabriella?"  i said I don't know Al, why? And he said, "Because when we get married and have a baby she has to like the name Gabriella because that is what we will name her."  
It was so so sweet. A little bit later, THAT SAME DAY, me and Al went to pick up Cassidy from school, I met Nicole in the parking lot as usual and Nicole said to me that Bryanna just started taking Spanish and she chose the name Gabriella as her Spanish name. I almost fell over. I told her she is not gonna believe this (as Alec was sitting in his stroller listening with a smile), I told her how Alec just asked me if Bryanna likes the name Gabriella and how he was gonna marry her! We were both so amazed by this, it was Alec's Magic ! It made Bryanna so happy and she never fogot it. She has brought it up many times, I know it makes her feel special that Alec chose her and she has this special love just for her from Alec.
 
So Gabriella was at the top of our list if we had a girl , we felt Alec chose this name for us and his baby sister this was his gift.. he knew what we didn't. We didn't give her a name until Cassidy came to the "H" to see Gabriella for the first time, we all agreed right then that her name is Gabriella Lace. Perfectly chosen by her loving big brother.






As I type this the lady on tv said 23 years! twice! of course Alec is with me as I share this sweet story.

Laura,

I'm sitting here with tears streaming down my face. This story - and all that came because of it - makes my heart smile. Gabriella truly is such a blessing and a gift, and like all of you, I believe she was a gift sent from Alec. She has brought our entire family so much joy and happiness...and faith. A beautiful baby girl, with a name chosen perfectly just for her. ♥

Love you all,
Holly

Laura,
Like Holly I too had tears as I read this. Tears of bittersweet joy! What an amazing story of your sweet little Angel. I read the blog to my Brit and as I was reading, her response was "I have chills right now". I felt the same way!

The strength of all of you continues to amaze me!

I have seen pics and a video...what a beautiful little princess you have😊 I am looking forward to meeting your precious baby girl.

Love,
Diana

Precious perfect and so very loved...Little Gabriella Lace. She was chosen for you all to give you some more love. I know in my heart that Alec sent her to you all.
