yum....grass!

What a doll! This is McKay's first time experiencing grass. He didn't it, he didn't love it either. I couldn't get one smile out of him the entire time. Honestly, I couldn't get him to look at the camera either. He just picked at the grass trying to get a hold of it so he could taste it. I tried to tell him the taste was very bland and unfulfilling, but he's McKay, and my son...why would he listen to his mother. I love my sweet baby, and just recently I've decided that my role as a mother is what I want. McKay went with his daddy last night on what I guess you could call a father-son date. I missed my little guy so much. My heart ached for them to come back. This morning when I got McKay out of bed I just cried! I never wanted him to leave again--even if it is just for a night. Now, I want breaks and I need them, but MAN! I LOVE MY BABY MCKAY!!

Whats in a name?

What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
William Shakespeare

I've been tossing and turning over the name of our shoe store. I can't seem to find the right one, or even a vague shadow of the right one.... What IS in a name???? Those who have studied this play by Shakespeare probably think that I'm crazy for relating my dilemma to this quote. For, is it not true that this very passage tells the reader that it doesn't matter what you call something, people will know it for what it actually is or does. (Seriously, who is this Shakespeare man? So brilliant play maker who just happens to be right about everything??? )

BUT STILL!! I feel we need the perfect name, one describes youth, gives off excitement, causes a little bit of brain work. I want people to hear the name and love it and want to say it again. I want them to walk by and see our sign and say, wow, what is this new store?

So, I'm calling all my everybodies. Please HELP! If you have any good ideas, or any suggestions please please please let me know. I'm at a total stand still!
