(Eternal) questions

Sag: Who got to name everything? (This is a question he has asked repeatedly for years.)

Gem: And how did they tell the world?

...murmured and wondered this morning as we snuggled in blankets on the couch

Just the other day I heard myself asking the same question as Sag. You might not want to tell him that 30+ years later he could be asking the same thing. Or maybe it's just me and I never got an answer that satisfied me!

Lila's version is: "Why is (insert ANY word here) called (insert same word here)?" and "Who decided that?" (regarding why "whatever" is called "whatever.") I love open, inquisitive minds that question everything :)

Sag also recently said that one of the good things to come out of adding a baby to our family would be that we'd all have a hand in naming it :-)

These questions are pretty eternal, Jamie, aren't they?
