Abner

I love the name Abner.

I loved it long, long, long before I had babies.  

Had it been up to me, it would have been Luke's middle name.  

In all fairness, I never brought it up to Ben.  I had to work hard enough to bump Lucas from a middle name to a first name;  there was no way I'd win him over on two names! 

I secretly still consider him my Abner, though!


After school yesterday, the boys and I tagged along with Luke while he took a quick test in his school library.

I saw this book sitting on top of one of the shelves:


I about fell over dead!

I never come across the name Abner.  

On top of that, it has not one, but two of my favorite names!

I almost read it to the boys, but I decided I am going to wait until I track down my own copy.  

Then I can savor it's loveliness!

We were in there for a grand total of 10 minutes.

It was long enough for Ollie to fall asleep.

Kindergarten wears him out!
