we got another girl!!!
aunt becky said levi is going to either feel lonely or special! i agree:)
born on her great great grandfather george vandercar’s birthday,
birthday…2-22-12, she weighed 8lbs 3oz and was 20 inches long, baby and mommy doing well… and daddy too!
we made it to the wisconsin state line when we received the news she had arrived, we met her when she was about 9 hours old, she is adorable, beautiful, precious….she looks a lot like ua’s baby pics, and am told adrienne’s also, and has the dark hair we knew she would have, of course with adriennes black hair:)
i love her name, adrienne said joshua found it in the old testament, it was the name of the valley david fought goliath, if you look it is elah, it was a kings name, it is a hebrew name for God …root meaning “fear’ or “reverence” found in the old testament books of ezra and daniel,and they added the A to make it more feminine:) plus they said they didn’t want people pronouncing it ella… so that’s the story of our newest gift from God:)
and today i am remembering delia:) she has been with jesus now for 6 months! i miss her and wished so much she could have met aelah…. nana loves you delia
happy!
so…do you pronounce it “eee-lah” “el-lah” “ah-lah” ?? “aaa-la” ????
need an audio sound bite!!
Long A…la….not lah
definitly need soundbite.
i was horrible learning and remembering those long and short vowels. i never did get them sorted out.
so a long A ….is like when fonzie says ‘aaaaaaayyyyyyeeee” ??
can you believe I graduated out of anything?
Yep
long A like the Fonz, not short a like when Skipper Gilligan says “aye aye captain” 🙂 Maybe we had to much TV and not enough English.
