Sarah Gardella

        When my mom was pregnant with me she did what ever mother does and starts to search for baby names. She bought book and looked online. I was her first and only girl so she was excited to finally be able to pick out a little girl name. She did have a baby before me which is my brother Sean. He is three years older than me, so when she was pregnant with me he was three. The name that my mom had originally picked for me was going to be Layloni which is a Hawaiian name. She had a best friend who was Hawaiian and they had come up with that name together. She was dead set on that name until my brother came home from preschool one day and started rubbing her belly saying "Sarah". My mom would sit there and tell him no, sissy's name is going to be Layloni not Sarah. But my brother was very adimit about my name being Sarah. She had no idea where he came up with this name because at preschool he had no friends there named Sarah. Actually there was no one in the preschool at that time with the name Sarah at all. So she was very confused with where a three year old had picked up that name out of nowhere. But after a couple of weeks with arguing with a three year old about a name she gave up and decided that she would let my brother name me Sarah. So that is how i received my name as Sarah and not Layloni.
