Naming

I've had some questions as to how Selah got her name and what her name means, so I thought I'd be nice and address them!

As I wrote on a friend's blog a while back (yes, I wrote what "San Francisco"'s name was early):
Our little girl (due end of February/beginning of March) is going to be named Selah Faith. Selah is my husband's pick and it's from the Bible (Psalms). It means "stop and listen/give thanks" as in to give time for praise and thanks. Faith came from what I needed to have after our miscarriage and also during this pregnancy, with all of the pregnancy worries. Her full name together basically means to stop and give thanks to God for what He has given us. 

There you have it. Pretty simple, huh? :)
