It's Official Baby Lewie has a Name!

Well after much deliberation we have finally decided on a name for baby Lewie. His name will be.....drum roll..........Carter Wesley Lewis. Carter is simply a name we both liked, and it is what we will call him. I think that it is a cute little boy's name, while Alan thinks it's a solid name for a State Football or Braves Baseball player. Haha! Wesley is very special to both of us for two different reasons. For Alan, Wesley was his grandfather's name. While I did not know his grandfather very well, I can see the qualities that he has passed on to Mr. Greg such as hard working and his willingness to always help those around him. I hope and pray that Carter is able to learn these same qualities that the Lewis men seem to pass from generation to generation. For me, Wesley was the name of my older cousin who was such a role model for me. He was such a Godly and brave man throughout his life, which are both qualities I know he learned from his amazing parents. I pray that Carter will be as Godly and brave throughout the challenges he faces in life, and I pray that Alan and I can support and teach him just as my aunt and uncle did for Wesley. Both of these men are very special to us, and we are honored that our child can carry own their name.
