Julian - because it suits him. It is sweet and he is saintly.
William, after my dad and our midwife.
Pallas: An owl visited our backyard the morning he was born and hooted, hooted, hooted. The owl is closely associated with the ancient greek goddess, Pallas Athene. In France, the owl is also a symbol associated with midwives, who oftentimes are nocturnal, too. I've NEVER had an owl in our backyard - we've had them at Granny's, but never here in Palisade. Definitely a sign, a good omen.
Velo: Hello? From Velocipede, bicycle, latin for "swift foot." Julian definitely came into the world with a quickness!

Oh my goodness...He is so, so sweet. I cannot wait to meet him! I am knitting a teeny, tiny little sweater for him. Can't wait to wrap him up in it!
Lots of love to all of you! See you soon!
Jackie
