Thank you for sharing your adoption story! I love her name and its meaning! I am a new mother to a daughter (6 months old) and so I find stories like this so interesting. We had a terrible time agreeing on a girl's name when we found out we were expecting a girl. Finally one night while watching John's "Don't Waste Your Life" video, I casually said "How about Piper"? For once my husband agreed! I can't thank Pastor John enough for helping us see the beauty of God's grace and showing us how we should glorify Him! Our daughter…she is Piper Grace!

That must be amazing to pray for someone by name before they exist. Wow.

I would love to know how your concerns all played out over the years! The reality of the pro's and con's list.

Love her name. Our youngest daughter is named Nina Gabriel. And like Talitha, Nina means "little girl" (Spanish). And Gabriel is her daddy's first name, so she's named in his honor too. How fun that our daughters have this in common!
