Our Courageous Little King

Andrew Ryan - courage


Baby Boy finally has a name. Andrew Ryan Correa.

Andrew = courageous

Ryan = little king

Noni bought Andrew this "pray for courage" gown long before we knew his name. But now it seems perfect, doesn't it? The words? The lion being the symbol of courage and an animal known as a king? We pray that Andrew will be bold and courageous in his faith and in serving the Lord.

"Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. 
Do everything in love."

1 Corinthians 16:13-14

Love it! AC, the name was meant to be. How precious, Alex and Andrew! Wish you were here so we could have a celebratory lunch (that would include Society Bakery cupcakes, of course). Congratulations :)

Wonderful strong name. I'm jealous you have decided. Are you still thinking of calling him Drew for short?

Oh girl, it's just perfect! I've been on pins and needles, and the "reveal" was even better than expected! Andrew and Ryan are both classic and timeless boy names -- for me they conjure up the image of a true, mannerly gentleman. So...will it be "Andrew" or "Drew"? Either way, awesome name for your precious little one. And just in time! :-)

Amanda,
I think that is an absolutely beautiful name. Perfect! You guys made a wonderful choice and I love the meaning behind the name. I have no doubt that with your love and guidance Andrew will be courageous and bold in living out his faith. Congratulations on picking the name for your second little boy. I love it! Thanks for sharing. :-)

Love it! We thought about BOTH of those names! And I love that he will also be AC and that both boys will start with A. Very exciting! Can't wait to meet him! Hope you are feeling well!

Yay--a name! I'm so happy for you guys that you have decided on a name and have officially announced it! How exciting! I love the name. Both good, solid, strong names. I can't wait to see what sweet Andrew looks like. Will he look like Alex? You or Jerry? Oh the suspense!

Hope you are feeling well these last few weeks. Can't believe it's so close. Miss you--I'm gonna call you soon. It's been too long!
