Benaiah Malachi is the name of our baby. Ben. Yes, a boy. I thought that from the beginning. I had read that you should name your lost baby and I thought this was a good idea. I could refer to him with a name to the kids, rather than saying, "you know, the baby that died". I can say his name to them. We haven't told them his name yet, not ready to. I will.
I also bought a little charm to put on my pandora bracelette that has all the kid's birthstones on it. I wanted something different and small to represent him. So I picked out a round spacer with daisies on it. Jon gave me daisies during my miscarriage, purple ones. So the daisy charm, seemed just right.
His name and meaning:
Benaiah (Ben-ay-yah) Hebrew. Meaning-made by the Lord, or the Lord's child. I picked it for the meaning.
Malachi- Hebrew. Meaning- Messenger of God, angel. I picked it for the meaning.
So, he has a name, a Biblical one, which is fitting.
I keep going.
