Dear William, Daniel, Catherine, Michael, and Sarah, (and your parents), (and any future descendants and their parents),
Two weeks ago we all met to witness, participate in, and celebrate Sarah’s Baptism. It was GREAT to see all of you (and your parents too)!

You can see all the photos from Sarah’s Baptism HERE.
Sarah’s Godparents are Mellisa Hampe and Anthony Guzman [Note: Tony is ALSO Kasia’s Godfather; and Mel participated in Kasia’s birth.]
So, let’s take a moment to talk about Sarah’s name — in Poland, her Imieniny are celebrated on July 13 [we already discussed William’s Imieniny HERE; Danile’s Imieniny HERE; Catherine’s Imieniny HERE; and Michael’s Imieniny HERE].
The name Sarah is a name originating from peoples known as the Hebrews. In Hebrew, the meaning of the name Sarah is Princess. In the Bible (Old Testament), Sarah was the wife of Abraham and mother of Isaac. Her name was originally Sarai, but God commanded that her name be changed to Sarah before the birth of her son Isaac.
So, Sarah, I call you a Princess; but, you, and other’s with your name have been called Princesses since ancient times.
Sarah Neumann
And, you are not the only Sarah in our family — I have a Niece called Sarah; she is Sarah Levine, daughter of Lee Levine and Ann Neumann, and Sister of Alina Levine.
Hania, Alina & Sarah
Sarah — a wonderful name, chosen by your Parents especially for YOU, a name known since ancient times, and a name with good company within our family.
Love,
Dziadziuś Paweł.
