The Name Game

When we were expecting our daughter we decided not to find out whether she was a boy or a girl, so almost from the time we found out I was pregnant we had two names picked out. Skylar for a boy, Samantha for a girl. I really liked both names, alternately called the baby one or the other, and was totally sure about them for basically all nine months. Until two nights before our girl was born. All through that night I kept waking up thinking "Isabella." I just couldn't get it out of my mind.
