Daylynn Renee McGurk

Welcome baby girl! Did you know deciding on a name is a little difficult?! Your dad and I took awhile to completely decide your name. From the beginning we threw out some names we liked before we knew you were a little girl. I have always loved Danica since I was a little girl, well with the race car driver Danica Patrick we decided nay on that choice. We moved on to the next choice Daylynn. I wanted that as your first name but got moved to your middle name for awhile with possibly Marlee as your first name. Either way you were having Daylynn as part of your name, that was not a choice. The Marlee got thrown out after a few days so you were just Baby Daylynn (baby in place of a blank for your first name). Well come July 4th your dad finally decided Daylynn it was! We then had your first name finalized just needed a middle name. I was very thankful and very happy he loved using Daylynn as your first name. Why does this name mean so much and how did I think of it? Well you are named after a very special lady! We called your great great grandma, Day. She was an exceptional woman and it really saddens me you were not able to meet her. She passed away about 3months ago. She loved you very much and tried hard to stick around so she could meet you but thankfully she was not in pain anymore. She got to see your ultrasound pictures and was still here when we decided Daylynn was going to be either part of your name. She also watched you grow and kick in my belly. She even left you a letter we have framed. You were a blessing in disguise for us. God works in mysterious ways and as much as it kills me your Grandma Day is now shining down on us instead of in our presence, she is now your guardian angel and think this must have been his plan all along. Anyways you are a lucky girl being named after such an amazing person. You have been loved the minute we found out about you :) You have brought a lot of joy to our family and you aren't even born yet! We love you Daylynn Renee and can't wait to meet you and watch you grow!
