Its In The Name..

I'd like to make my first post about how I came up with the title of this blog. Why? Because, I think titles are almost like first impressions. To me, my title has a lot of meaning to it. If some of you don't already know, Seashell was a childhood name gave to me from my Grandpa Burruss. Chelsea wasn't the easiest word for him to say so I became his Seashell. 
 If you look more into detail Seashell actually goes along quite well with my birth given name.
Within the definition of the name Chelsea one of them is A Port Of Ships/Sea,Ocean. I found this rather interesting and I am pretty sure my grandpa had no clue that they both had something in common.

A lot of people when talking about a certain subject they will say " That's all in a Nutshell ". As for me, this is all in a Seashell. My grandpa is gone now and has been for some time now but we had a connection and bond that was so special. He will always be apart of me and I can't thank him enough for giving me such a beautiful name, a name he probably never knew would mean such a great deal to me.

  2. This is beautiful. I miss my grandfather dearly. He died when I was 8. I still cry when I think about him, and I'm 25. I noticed you are my newest follower, so I'm reading and following you now. I love the list of veggies and herbs you're growing in your garden, too. That's a goal of mine. I'm really looking forward to reminiscing about Pendleton through your blog, so please don't be shy. :)
