  1. Ahh, (it’s Kristen here, Valo June’s mother, I’m blogging now at Marginamia) while I was partially hoping to keep this name for just us, I’m glad it’s sweetness found them! I also love the similar nature of our themes–we both chose names that mean ‘light’ to go with Reverie! The themes seemed so natural to us, and I guess to them, too! Congrats, Rebecca!

  2. These stories behind Nona and Valo’s names are honestly some of the most touching I’ve ever read. You named your daughters beautifully.
