A note about her name

We didn't choose the name Aria for anyone or anything in particular - it's just a name that we found and liked. In Italian, it means "air," which in turn means a type of song in classical music. In opera, an aria is a solo number that is usually performed by one of the lead characters. It's pronounced "AH-ree-ah."

Kathryn is Hosanna's mom's name. We had decided that whether it was a girl or boy we wanted to honor someone in the family, and Kathy a) is definitely someone worth honoring, and b) has a name that goes really well with Aria.
