Ohhhh...if I felt like being an evil mother I could bring that up...you know, after the child tries to run away or something, I'd just be like "Yeah, well...guess what your name means?"

But that'd just be mean.

I've always loved the name Rosie, because no one will ever know it's origins unless you choose to tell them!

White-Hand Announcement of an addition to the Saucepan clan

Sorry to hijack this thread, but it made sense to use it rather than starting a new thread.

The Saucepan clan has just become the proud owner of a Black Labrador puppy named Frodo (Mrs Saucepan's choice, not mine).

I don't think Rosie is necessarily a role model I would wish to give any daughter of mine ...would have to have "Marie" and "Stopes" as middle names......

Oh well. Looks like photobox won't let me display the pictures. Must be a bandwidth thing.

Edit: Managed to resize the photos so I could upload them.
