I was brushing my teeth and staring at myself in the mirror just now when a thought struck me out of nowhere: I'd like to have a little daughter and name her Amethyst, and call her Amy for short.

This has been on my mind all day. As that thought struck me, I had a fleeting mental image of a little girl giggling and running through the park that I used to as a young child.

I imagined my daughter. My little girl... and I felt a brief jolt of strong emotion that I really can't describe. No, I don't think this was some kind of spooky premonition or anything, just my paternal instinct kicking in. I'm almost 30, dammit. Guys have biological clocks too, and mine has begun to tick.

Awe this is so cute. I bet you'd be a great father.

Well, we've both been married before and didn't bring children into our marriages. Why? Many reasons for me and I'm sure you too. At the time I knew my husband and I weren't getting along and I didn't want to bring a child into that. Then I wanted to wait until I had enough money to support all I wanted to give my little one. Now I'm not sure what I'm waiting on...a man maybe. Wish I wouldn't have waited.

Amethyst is a wonderful name. I love that part of Andy, the sensitive guy I just want to grab and hold onto!
