Knowshon
I don't believe I ever related the Knowshon story so here it is. I had been thinking for a couple of months that I might want the family to have a dog in the new house. We haven't had a lot of luck with dogs so I was concerned about how it would go over. I started dropping hints about what kind of dog I thought would be good for us. I had the 4 year old on my side immediately, but Zach seemed to be on the fence and Nicole wasn't too hot for the idea. I eventually came up with a plan that would satisfy everyone. We would leave it to chance and the Georgia Bulldawgs. It was decided that if Georgia beat Florida we would get a dog and name it after the player of the game. At the time it didn't seem very likely since Georgia had just struggled to beat lowly Vanderbit and Florida was the defending national champs. Long story short we won and adopted Knowshon (As a resident of SW Florida we couldn't name her Moreno because everyone would assume she was named Marino) a few weeks later. She is well behaved and patient and we couldn't be happier with her.

People who read my blog will probably check out your blog, too.
Chiefly, my mom, wife, sister, and my cousin Stephen's wife, Kelly.
My dad might everynow and then.
Just to let you know...you will have a readership from my family.
I told Marc I blogged, and that you started one, but I didn't send him the link. I'll probably do it today.
By the way, I appreciate your kind words. My parents made sure we were well grounded in the word. We're trying to do the same, but I think we're falling short. Then again, our kids are still mighty little. My kids might be farther along then I was at that young.
