I am a child of the soil. Interestingly, as I grew older, I always maintained a happy disposition, partly because my middle name is Victoria. I’ve always cherished my first name (which means trouble or problems depending on which country you are from) and wouldn’t trade it for anything. In my early 20s, my Bishop, weary of hearing people say my name signified problems, declared, “She’s a child of God. When the enemy sees her coming, he says, ‘Here comes trouble,’” and that settled it.
