What is your child's name?
Gabriel David Gimlin
Why did you chose that name?
Before Gary and I were even seriously considering having a child, we both knew we absolutely loved the name Gabriel. It just seemed like a strong, handsome and, of course, a very biblical name. His middle name is passed down through the family. I thought it was so cute that Gabriel would share the same middle name and initials as his Daddy!
What is the meaning of their name?
I actually never looked up the meaning of Gabriel's name until after he had passed, but I believe we were guided to choose his name for a reason. The Hebrew meaning of the name Gabriel is "strong man of God" and the Hebrew meaning of his middle name, David, is "beloved". I couldn't believe how perfect his name is! Especially for a precious child of God!
What were their features?
There was no argument as we looked at our precious angel for the first time, he was my son! lol. He looked just like me, with my nose and chin. Of course he had his Daddy's eye shape and his broad shoulders. But the cutest thing was the fact that his little toes curled up a little just like mine do. Talk about adorable!
Who are they?
As you can tell, he is my son but Gabriel has the most perfect Daddy in the entire world! He also has four Aunts that loved and adored him beyond belief! Three Uncles, one of which could not wait to teach little Gabe all about sports. He has five cousins, three of them are little boys and one little girl! The other cousin is still unknown :-) He has three sets of grandparents, four great grandmas and three great grandpas. And one great, great grandma! To say the least, this little boy is so loved! Gabriel was also a Daddy's boy all the way. Everytime Gary came home from work, our little guy would be kicking up a storm the minute he heard Daddy's voice! He loved to dance to music too. Oh, and his all time favorite kind of bed time stories were Star Wars related, but that could also be because Daddy was always reading them to him. He was such an active little one, and perfect, perfect beyond measure.
