Grandpa Bernshausen always wanted to name me Wilhemenia after my great grandmother. As you can imagine, my mom didn't exactly go for that and decided that Wendy would suit me just fine. Whew - Thank you mom! However, that never stopped my grandpa from calling me that or Little Willy (geez - a great term of endearment coming from a grandparent, but definitely NOT something you want to be called out in public by someone other than grandpa!) :-) Anyway, after our first visit with Grandma and Grandpa Bernshausen, it is clear that Lainey will now carry the torch. She will come to realize that when they call her by Wilhemenia or Little Willy, that she holds a very very special place in their heart!
