    Revised and Edited

    Benjamin, the Son of My Right Hand


    First of all, my parents went through many names before agreeing on one. Eventually, they had narrowed it down to Benjamin, Andrew, and Noah-all names from the Bible. My dad liked Benjamin best, but it wasnt until my mom went with my older brother Aaron to the musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolored Dreamcoat and heard the song about Benjamin, that she agreed to the name. The name Benjamin originates from Hebrew and means Son of my right hand-Gods right hand. In conclusion, I like the name Benjamin and am glad that thats my name.

    In English class we wrote our name and age on clay tablets in cuneiform, an old language from ancient Mesopotamia. You can see it on the picture above.
