Her name is Francesca

Francesca Betty. You may call her Francesca, Francy, Frances, or Betty. Francesca means "free." She was born on May Day. The earliest May Day celebrations appeared with the festival of Flora the Roman Goddess of flowers. Traditional English May Day rites and celebrations include Morris dancing, crowning a May Queen and celebrations involving a Maypole. I think it perfectly fitting. I look forward to planning future birthday parties for my little May Queen.

Ken was born on May Day. It's a good day to be born on. By the way, I love the new family photo.
