That would have been kind of cute Val!

Then the next one would have been Dorcas August!!

I was my parents last chance for a boy. (I have 3 older sisters)
My parents were so sure I was a boy they didn't even have girl names picked out! I was going to be Robert (after my dad and grandfather that was killed in a car accident before I was born)
So when they found out I was a girl, my mom wanted to name me Roberta so they could call me Bobbie. I think that would have been cute, Bobbie that is.... not so much Roberta
And it would have been so fitting because I'm a daddy's girl through and through! But my mom was out voted when my dad thought to name me after his mother Angela. I'm not a second though because her middle name is Elizabeth and mine is Marie.
Funny think is that in school, I was friends with 2 other Angela Marie's!!
