Dear Megan the meaning of my name is...

my friend Megan gave a challenge today to tell 

  • why I was given my name
  • what it means
  • how i feel about it
so here i go... :)

i was named Sarah because of a compromise my parents came to. My mom wanted to name me Constance Joy or Sara Delight (can you imagine!!) my dad (thankfully) talked her down to just plain naming me Sarah which means Princess in Hebrew i quite like my name thought growing up my mom always used calling me a Princess as synonymous with Lazy. Sarah has always felt like such a pretty elegant name to me that some days i don't think it belongs with me at all. and i was never singular there was always at lest one other Sarah around so for the longest time i was Sarah H. anyway the one interesting thing about my name is it can be miss spelled and sometimes when i get really depressed with the life I'm living I make up stories in my head for a girl named Sara Ann Hanson who is extremely pretty, smart, and confident.
