All three have to sound good together - I already knew before I had kids that I would be calling them by all 3 names when they were in trouble! :)Revkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00315491884653605786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429762648669124588.post-39030752057106400052006-12-16T18:52:00.000-05:002006-12-16T18:52:00.000-05:00Hmmm ...

I am most thankful that I am a girl - I have tried to think what i would have ended up being nicknamed if I were a boy - Selah, Thuzy? The whole name is just horrible!Revkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00315491884653605786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429762648669124588.post-72632393044208773642006-12-16T00:46:00.000-05:002006-12-16T00:46:00.000-05:00You're welcome.

It tells a bit about the family dynamic.<br />Thanks for that insight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429762648669124588.post-43217056683658239982006-12-15T16:20:00.000-05:002006-12-15T16:20:00.000-05:00Revka is Hebrew for Rebekah so if I lived in Israe...Revka is Hebrew for Rebekah so if I lived in Israel, I guess my name would be as common as Rebekah is here. My parents witnessed to Jews and gave all of kids Hebrew names, but they got more "normal" as they went along. (Shoshannah, Revka, Rakel, Peter, and Sarah) I'm just glad I wasn't a boy! If the first 3 of us girls had been a boy, we would have been named Methuselah Perez ... can you Revkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00315491884653605786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429762648669124588.post-46129173957701168122006-12-15T13:57:00.000-05:002006-12-15T13:57:00.000-05:00Bob here--so what is the derivation of your name-R...Bob here--so what is the derivation of your name-Revka?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429762648669124588.post-32582899425874298332006-12-15T10:11:00.000-05:002006-12-15T10:11:00.000-05:00I definitely enjoy establishing relationships and ...I definitely enjoy establishing relationships and sharing ideas.

I was wondering who that Steve was you referred to. I never thought of myself as a Steve, but then what is a Steve?<br />The ongoing chats we're having are, for me, why I blog. Discussion about real issues that are impacting our lives as parents---oh, and they're fun. At least, I hope Steve thinks so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
