Subject: RE: BS: And I name this child.....What????
Reminds me of the story of the the twin babies, adopted at birth to different families. One going to a Jordanian couple who named their adoptive son, Amaal; the other being adopted by a Latina family who named their son Juan.

Years later the natural mother traveled many miles to visit the Latina family and check on the progress of her son. When the boy's adoptive parents asked if she was going to also visit her other son, she replied, "No, if you've seen Juan, you've seen Amaal."
