I should have named my daughter after Chi Omega somehow. I attended my first Convention as an advisor in 1998, when I was 6 months' pregnant with Paige. Up until that time I was convinced I was having a boy....I think it was a defense mechanism because I wanted a girl so badly. When I was sitting there in our first official business meeting, I felt the baby kicking for the first time, and I looked around me at all the other women, many mothers and daughters and sisters, and I thought "I'm here at convention with MY daughter....my legacy!" Three days after I got home I had my ultrasound that confirmed I was having a baby girl!!!! And let me tell you, she THINKS she's already a Chi Omega!!!
There was a girl on our campus who was a Chi O leg. Her mother gave her the middle name CHI in honor of the chapter that meant so much to her. And "Jane Chi Doe" went Alpha Phi. Go figure.
