One more thing about the kids' names

I just realized all of my kids have family names for both their first and middle names.  Elizabeth's didn't happen on purpose.

Elizabeth Jane - Two of my Grandpa Harrison's sisters were Faye Elizabeth and Haley Jane.  They also happen to be the two aunts who my mom spent the most time with when she was growing up.  (Mom finding that out also changed her opinion of Elizabeth's name...until that point, she did NOT like it...at all!)

Katherine Martin -  Daddy's aunt is Kate (we were going to call Nin "Kate") and you already know her middle name is my maiden name. 

Anne Lancaster - Daddy's mother is Anna and Bitsy's middle name is my maternal grandmother's maiden name.

Thomas Harrison - Brad, Brad's dad, my Papa Stone; and his middle name is my mom's maiden name.
