{ What's in a Name? }

Turner Robert.  Where did it come from?  What does it mean?  Why??  These are all thing you will probably ask some day so here is a little background on why you are who you are...my little TR.

Daddy and I have had names picked out for years.  Thats kind of what happens though when you have been together almost 10 years!  We always knew we wanted children so many many moons ago we started compiling a list of names we liked.  Turner was always at the top of the list and there was never any doubt that if we had a little boy thats what his name would be. 

Daddy was actually the one who came up with Turner.  I really dont even know where he got it from but what I do know is I love it!  I love it even more too because your daddy loves it and picked it.  He really never has an oppinion on anything so for him to show interest and a liking to something it got my attention.  Plus, how many kids do you know named Turner?  Maybe a lot now because we started a rage with a totally awesome name but when you came about Turner was a name most had never heard of for a first name.  I kind of like unique names that not every person has.  Not too uniqe though where people cant pronounce it or tilt their head to the side wondering what your parents were thinking.

Robert is from your Grandpa, my boiological dad.  He passed away when Mommy was 17 from pancriotic cancer.  He was a great man and passing his name on to you is an honor.  You would have loved him.  He was a funny, laid back, English man who loved Jimmy Buffet, the Eagles, soccer (aka as football where he comes from), american football, golf, brandy, having perfect hair that was what he called platinum blonde (grey to the rest of the world), and a good tan.
