What's in a name?


I have had many questions about Mac's name, such as "Where did you come up with his name?" Well, Mac is named after two extraordinary men...Randall's grandpa and my pepaw. Randall was extrememly close to his grandpa, hence the name Mac. My pepaw's last name is Patton. He never had a son...only 4 daughters (my mom is #2). I had said since I was a little girl that I wanted Patton to be in my son's name somewhere. Mac actually has the same name we had picked out for Emma had she been a boy. We know that with both of these names, Mac has some huge shoes to fill. We also have no doubt that God has great things in store for him, so he should be able to fill those shoes.
