Do you know the meaning of your name? My name means "dark haired" & that is what I am! My brother's name means "bringer of light". That is kind of funny because often when we turn on a light we will say, "and God said 'let there be light'". Some people pick their children's names by the meanings.

I think my name means wary, or caution, or something like that. You know me well enough to know that I am the most cautious person on the face of the earth! LOL I'm the kind of person who'd need to plan a month in advance for a spontaneous weekend trip across the border, if that's what I wanted to do. :)
