Baby Name Story: Fyodor - Given by God

Written by Elmar Alex


Continued from page 1

“Now, everybody was happy and satisfied. Neither my wife nor I wanted more children, but suddenly 18 months laterrepparttar third son was born. Actually, we didn’t plan to have him but this smart guy appeared notwithstanding! Well, there’s a fallacy that a nursing woman can’t get pregnant. I think many couples makerepparttar 111527 same mistake. At least whenever I see children of whom one is a year older thanrepparttar 111528 other (like our second and third sons) I think their parents thought that way.

“We did a lot of thinking to namerepparttar 111529 third son and then suddenly I said he would be called Fyodor. Neither my wife nor I had relatives or ancestors with this name and everybody was surprised and unhappy with my idea. But I insisted because I was absolutely sure that it wasrepparttar 111530 right name forrepparttar 111531 boy. Later on I found inrepparttar 111532 book describing baby names meanings that Fyodor means "given by God". Indeedrepparttar 111533 boy was given by God. All our relatives later on agreed I had maderepparttar 111534 right choice.

Q – Pavel, you say this son was given by God. But don’t you think any baby is given by God?

A – Oh, yes, of course. But people believe they can plan their family: how many children to have, when to get them born, even to choose if it will be a boy or a girl. Fyodor was absolutely out of planning. God decided for us that we would have him. And something interesting that I didn’t knowrepparttar 111535 meaning ofrepparttar 111536 name when I thought he would be called Fyodor. Butrepparttar 111537 meaning ofrepparttar 111538 name proved to be just torepparttar 111539 point.

Spreadrepparttar polythene overrepparttar 111526 hole and gently press it intorepparttar 111527 bottom.

Holdrepparttar 111528 edges down with bricks or heavy stones.

Pulling fromrepparttar 111529 edge work aroundrepparttar 111530 liner flatteningrepparttar 111531 creases torepparttar 111532 sides.

Using your fork, puncturerepparttar 111533 liner, creating drainage holes overrepparttar 111534 whole area.

Spreadrepparttar 111535 shingle overrepparttar 111536 bottom to a depth of 5cm (2"), usingrepparttar 111537 rake. This will now form a draninage zone to prevent stagnation.

How did it go? Ok I hope!

You must keep your wetland garden well watered during dry periods, which can be done more attractively with a seeping hose (a hose with lots of holes in it). You can make your own from a piece of 2" pipe and drilling holes in it,repparttar 111547 sort of pipe used for sink outlets is ideal.

This then gets pushed intorepparttar 111548 gravel, withrepparttar 111549 buried end blocked off. Insert your garden hose intorepparttar 111550 pipe and allowrepparttar 111551 water to trickle slowly throughrepparttar 111552 holes. This method prevents puddling onrepparttar 111553 surface.
