Names
Well obviously by the videos you can tell we changed their names. I know most of you think we are crazy. Hugo still wanted Benjamin. Olenka wanted her name changed. As for Cesia, well in Peru we had it changed to Isabelle. I still love the name, but it wasn't really working.
So. Now we have Benjamin Michael Colee. Breanna Lynn Colee. Elizabeth Kate Colee.
We are working on the name switch, especially before school starts! Plus sometimes it's easier to call them by their first given names b/c people know who we are talking about! I told someone that Brent was going to have to write an article in the church bullitin explaining their new names!
When we call her Breanna Lynn - it makes me think of the country song, Rebecca Lynn. ha!
Benjamin really wanted to be called Benji, but um...no.
We just switched Isabelle to Elizabeth. Same name, different language. Brent like the name Elizabeth from the beginning anyway.
