About a girl

Last night I dreamed I had a little girl named Alice.

She had long curly hair, and was running around a backyard wearing butterfly wings. She was dancing barefoot, and she was so sweet.

I had kind of forgotten about Alice, but it was on my first attempt at a list. Maybe it’s a sign?
Here is my revised version …

GIRLS

  • Grace
  • Hannah (everyone hates it)
  • Emma (too trendy)
  • Ella
  • Claire (possible middle name)
  • Charlotte
  • Bethie/Beth/Bethany (everyone hates it)
  • Alice
  • Hilary/Hillary
  • Molly
  • Bella/Isabella (I actually want to name our next dog Bella)
  • Aurora
BOYS

  • Nicholas (almost ready to cross this off)
  • Brady (was too trendy for Darling Husband)
  • Andrew
  • Ben/Benjamin
  • Peter (maybe my new favourite!)
What names do you like? Promise I won’t steal!

  2. Haha yeah, I know! I am! Travis, Ryan and Jeffrey are really nice names. I don’t think of boy names much, since I am totally wishing for a girl — it would be funny if you have a girl and I have a boy.

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m a writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 12-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep them from taking over my life. Creating things helps.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time with her writing. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
