My granddaughter is named Glory and she has fit her name from the day she was born. She is now 9 years old, a great student and quiet leader, has a sweet disposition and a heart for Jesus, and is an excellent young athlete. She is one of the top dancers of her age in our state. I love her and her 3 wonderful siblings more than I can describe. (Sorry for the duplicate post - hit the save button by mistake!)

I named my daughter Glory Redd after the movie 'Glory' and after her paternal grandmother. She turned out to have milky skin, very blue eyes and hair that is a beautiful shade of red. She is super smart and loves her name.
