Sweet Caroline

That's right, she has a name. Caroline. 

What does Caroline mean? From my research Caroline means "beautiful". I would hope that Caroline would be beautiful in all she does and bless others with beauty throughout her life, and I'm not just meaning a pretty smile. There's pretty, and then there's beauty. Beauty is an essence, a gift, something you leave behind after you're around people and they feel enriched and blessed by who you are. Beauty is a way of leaving a mark that reflects our Maker on everything you do.  

I also like that Caroline is very similar to Carolina as in North Carolina my home and my husband's adopted home. And the place where we are raising our family.

What about a middle name? Well, we'll get to that later...
