Never been to Rhode Island, but Christmas isn't that common on a last name.

It's definitely a conversation starter though - people will think they are being funny when they say I should have been a Mary (gee, haven't heard that before ), and then I tell them that's my husband's sister's name (Merry).

My granddaughter, Isabella, is coming over this morning while my son finishes moving into his new apartment. This means we get to play with her and have fun for a few hours . We haven't seen her for a month and a half because mom wouldn't allow parenting time - poor baby is being fought over, both kids are spending money on attorneys that could be used for Isabella's benefits instead of lining the pockets of others. Why can't kids listen to their "elders" advise and not punish the baby? Oh well, happy day - get to see our "Izz-A-Baby".
