Told you we didn't make up her name...

Several people, who shall remain nameless (but don't read this blog, anyway) have asked if Tony and I made up the spelling of Leila's name. The answer: no.
L-E-I-L-A is the Hawaiian spelling. These people don't seem to believe me, but whatever. Well, my Pottery Barn Kids catalog came a few days ago, and what I saw made me want to tear those pages out and send them to anyone who ever doubted the spelling of my girl's name.

That's right - it's her name, spelled her way on an adorable towel! I can't find the picture online, but in the catalog her name (spelled her way) is embroidered on an "Anywhere Chair" I know it shouldn't bother me what people think of her name, or the spelling of it, but it does. So, all I have to say to "those people" is in 'yo face!
