His name....

His Chinese name is Yang Lin Qiang....I can handle saying his first two names but as Lily says about Qiang "don't even try it, your tongue won't know how to say it"....she's right!...Jillian always loves to hear about her name...even though she knows the story...her first name is after her aunt and her middle name is a combination of her grandmothers middle names...I think it gives her a sense of connectedness where there are gaps...a sense of belonging and meshing into her family....knowing this it is important to us for our next child's name to also have meaning...we were intentional with Campbell and of course were with LinQiang as well...Lynsey, who has been a integral part of our adoption middle name is Jo...my dad's name is Joe (Joseph), I love the biblical characters of Joseph that have attributes such as integrity, loyalty, forgiveness and being filled with the spirit...because of these thoughts we decided to name him Joseph....his middle name is after his brother in heaven, Campbell (whose name is after Nonnies side of the family)....and his second middle name is Lin...which is part of his Chinese name.....so his full name is Joseph Campbell Lin Hart....like Lynsey said she is Lynsey Jo and he is Joe Lin ;-)....she said it was the least we could do to give him a flip flop name of hers since she will be the only one without a "J" name...James, Jillian, Joseph (and as she says "The Lynz"!)....
