what's in a name......

ok, so there has been a potential addition to our little clan.......she has visited twice........and we love her to death..................she has certainly raised the bar for our eldest in terms of expectations she has of herself and of him....................and then there is the question of her name......which...ironically is the same as my only sibling's only ex-wife..................the one whose name we do not speak...........the one we have not seen in over 16 years.................the one my gentle spouse invited to leave our home........that one..................so this name is one we have a hard time bringing to our lips.........she is mentioned as....'that sweet girl'.................not bad for a descriptive...........................but who will break the tragic news of her name to her................of course..................she may just keep her own name.....and break any curse that her potential name could muster..................there is always a silver lining..............................
