Dear Jessica, It brings me joy how you reached out to your dentist's new assistant, and asked your dentist to have her assist her on your return appointment. Now that's confidence! About names . . . They can build a child/person up or tear them down. Growing up, I knew a mathematician who named each of his children after a famous, historic mathematician. This put incredible pressure on each of his children, as they worried that they may not live up to their name. Please choose your name and that of your children carefully! Also, I am glad you acknowledged that the most important word in English is that of one's own name! Yours truly, Monica

Yeah, back then they didn't know the gender before birth, so you had to have an alternate plan for a name. I have an older sister, 4 years, an older brother, 3 years. Wonder if I was supposed to be a girl, too. Haha. ☺️ Better late than never!
