... i just love, love, love Violet Saffron

Such a gorgeous name ... and please, please do consider i am mean this in the kindest way & i'm gonna try & say it in the nicest possible way that sadly not always friendships last forever (please understand i would so want your friendship to last forever with your obviously very much loved friend " Saffron ") but our Grandmothers live within us forever (i went through the heartache of naming my one & only child after my much loved sister & my sister of all people had the biggest falling out with me when my DD was just a baby & it damaged our relationship in the biggest way, so whenever i write me DD's full name (she is now 3.5years old) with her middle name which is my sister's name it still breaks my heart. So, i hope you understand where i'm coming from. I know it's lovely to think our friends will be friends forever & no hurt will come with it but sadly there are no guarantees and i just think how much more easier & safer it would be for you (and your DD) if she were to be named after her wonderful Great-Grandmother ... and the wonderful heartfelt story that you just mentioned before to go with her name ... and what a cherished & precious GIFT to give to your Grandmother in her late years ... that's what i call pure LOVE )

(Natty, please i so hope you are not offended by my story but just food for thought i guess ... i would dread for anyone to go through what i have been through as when their name is there, there is no changing it) xoxoxoxo
