(i made this sign for baby boy knight. the sides are empty to leave room for footprints). 
HERE IT IS! UNLESS THIS BABY COMES OUT WITH GIRL PARTS HIS NAME WILL BE PETER JOSEPH ABRAHAM KNIGHT. HERE IS WHY


1. FIRST NAME IS SIMPLY A NAME WE LIKE, BUT HAPPENS TO BE IN MY FAMILY HISTORY I BELIEVE ON MY PAPPY'S SIDE A LITTLE WAYS BACK. PETER WAS A RIGHTEOUS APOSTLE OF THE LORD AND WE CAN ONLY HOPE OUR SON WILL FOLLOW AND HAVE FAITH THAT EMULATES THAT OF THE BIBLICAL PETER.


2. JOSEPH BECAUSE WE WILL HAVE OUR SONS EACH HAVE TWO MIDDLE NAMES AND THE FIRST WILL BE A FAMILY NAME, AND SON NUMBER ONE SEEMS FITTING TO NAME AFTER HIS FATHER, SO JOSEPH.


3. ABRAHAM IS ALSO A BIBLICAL NAME BECAUSE WE WANT OUR KIDS TO HAVE SOMEONE TO LOOK UP TO IN THEIR NAME. WE WANT THEM TO HAVE ATTRIBUTES TO LIKEN THEMSELVES TO AND ASPIRE TO BE LIKE. ABRAHAM DISPLAYED GREAT FAITH AND OBEDIENCE. 


4. KNIGHT, OBVIOUSLY NOT LIKE I COULD CHOOSE ANOTHER NAME FOR HIS LAST NAME. HOWEVER KNOWING MY FATHER IN LAW AND HIS FAMILY, AND HEARING ABOUT THE MAN HIS FATHER, JOE'S GRANDFATHER WAS, I AM PROUD TO HAVE THIS BE MY SONS LAST NAME. I DID NOT GET TO KNOW GRANDPA KNIGHT, SINCE HE PASSED AWAY MANY YEARS AGO, BUT FROM WHAT I HEAR HE WAS A WONDERFUL MAN AND LOVED HIS FAMILY WITH HIS WHOLE HEART. 

WE CHOSE TO HAVE TWO MIDDLE NAMES BECAUSE IN MY FAMILY EACH OF THE BOYS HAVE TWO MIDDLE NAMES, AND JUST SO HAPPENS JOE HAS TWO MIDDLE NAMES AS WELL SO WE PLAN ON CONTINUING THE TRADITION.

  1. I love your choice in names! They flow really well and sound great-- but I wouldn't expect anything less than awesome from you guys. We are excited to come up and visit you!
