Adah'Jane Pearl

So YES.. Pearl is Adah'Janes middle name. I love it and when I first loved the name is when trav and I were dating/engaged he would write me letters and address it Pearl. I love it.. Funny thing is that he does not remember ever calling me that ...but that is a whole other story... so... I love the name cause pearls are rare.. the real one are authentic...The process of how they are made and formed is pretty cool and unique,, (kinda like growing a baby)A "natural pearl" is one that forms without any human intervention at all, in the wild, and is very rare. Many hundreds of pearl oysters or pearl mussels have to be gathered and opened, and thus killed, in order to find even one wild pearl, and for many centuries that was the only way pearls were obtained. This was the main reason why pearls fetched such extraordinary prices in the past.

I think of this the same way that Christ is always refining us and molding and shaping us,, But its the "rare" that let him do his work selflessly through us and his beauty shines and that itself is rare..but the treasures are far greater than anything "earthly"...

So Adah(means Adored)Jane (God is Gracious)and Pearl... well read on friends.

Below are some thing i found on pearls.. pretty cool...


The finest quality natural pearls have been highly valued as gemstones and objects of beauty for many centuries, and because of this, the word pearl became a metaphor for something very rare, very fine, very admirable and very valuable.


The pearl is the oldest known gem, and for many centuries it was considered the most valuable. Unlike all gems, the pearl is organic matter derived from a living creature - oysters and mollusks.


Over time, the pearl has become the symbol of purity and innocence and it is often sewn into bridal gowns, or worn as jewelry by the bride.
