After my mother died, my father married the dear friend so I became "Little Eva" and she was known as "Big Eva" in the family. "Big Eva" married Warner whose brother Henry was also married to an Eva. So now we have "Warner's Eva" and "Henry's Eva" or "Big Eva", "Little Eva" and the "Other Eva". BTW - "Big Eva" is about 6 inches and weighs at least 100 pounds less.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32414509.post-90038738695947114662008-09-24T03:16:00.000-06:002008-09-24T03:16:00.000-06:00Nearly 43 years ago I was born three weeks early a...Nearly 43 years ago I was born three weeks early and because of this, my parents had not yet thought of a name for me. The first draft of my birth certificate actually had the word "Baby" inserted where one would fill in the baby's first name.<BR/><BR/>When I asked my mother while I didn't have a name on my first birth certificate, she simply said, "...nobody of major significance had died so we could not think of a name right away..."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
