<\/a>Just after 4 am my phone buzzes, letting me know I have an email, and it wakes me up. Again, I forgot to turn off the ringer. <\/p>\n

My brother and his beautiful (yet exhausted) wife had twin girls: August and Sastolina. Healthy, no webbed toes and everyone is fine!<\/p>\n

Wait… Sastolina? Sassy! I like it! <\/p>\n

According to Google Book Search, sastolina is found within the tome: Arboretum et Fruticetum Britannicum By John Claudius Loudon. It is a plant known as Lavender Cotton (otherwise known as Santolina<\/em>), popularly used against round worm in Scotland.<\/p>\n

I like August because, well just because. She’s not born in August, it sort of sounds like my grandmother’s name Asunta, and “Auggie” rocks. So there!<\/p>\n
