MY PARENTS CHOSE THIS NAME BECAUSE: It's one of the only names they could agree on. Mom had a long list of names Daddy didn't like, but they both came up with Cooper and stuck with it.
PARENTS' WISH OR ADVICE: You are already such a joy in our lives and cannot wait to watch you grow! Never forget to live each day as if tomorrow may never come.
SOMETHING SPECIAL: We had no idea if you were going to be a boy or a girl. Since you decided to come a week late, we figured you had to be a boy because you were being so stubborn!
