Elliana's Song


When Clint and I were trying to come up with a name for our baby girl, I stumbled upon Elliana in a baby name book. I loved the meaning: God has answered our prayers. In addition, it has Hebrew origins which we thought was really cool in light of Clint's love of Biblical history. A day or so later, I remembered the song by one of my favorite Christian groups, Watermark, named "Elliana's Song." I listened to it again and from that point on, was completely sold on the name. It was also one of the only names Clint and I both agreed on!
We had known Grace would be her middle name for quite a while. She is named after my wonderful grandmother, Gracie Arnold. And of course, Grace has many spiritual implications that are very important to us as well.

Such a beautiful name and song for a beautiful little girl. She is truly a gift from God and I thank Him for her and her great-grandmother for whom she is named. I am truly blessed. Love, Elli's, grandmother Paula
