House Update and a Cat Name

Now, some of y'all must have been praying really hard because a second offer came in on our house which was better than the first one. So we took that offer and just hope that everything works out for the planned August 13 close date. We won't be making any money but will be losing less.

*************************************************

Just as background, we have no pets and have no plans to get pets for a few years. But, we now have a name for any cat we might get in the future. I read a book with the kids called "Guess Who Lives Here." In the book, the little boy has a cat named Silkie. Each time we've gotten to that page, Kellen tells me that when he gets a cat, it will be named Mexico, which both Josh and I think is awesome because I have no idea where he heard the word Mexico. So, in the future, if we aquire a cat, he or she will be named Mexico, in honor of Kellen at age 3.

It just makes sense that the kid that came up with "hungry house" would pick out a cool name for a cat. If I ever get another cat I will ask Kellen to name her.

So cute... I love the name and glad to hear about the house.

I'll keep praying on the house contract.

And "Mexico" cracked me up. I love Kellen--he always makes me laugh! (You could always use it if you're still in pinch for a middle name?!)

We may have to call Kellen for cat names. It seems we have a revolving door around here. Santa brought Samson and Rufus #2. We lost Samson to what we think was a snake bite a while back and now we haven't Seen Rufus #2 since Wednesday night. Fortunately,God delivered Princess to our doorstep a few weeks ago so we are not without feline protection in the garage. If this keeps up though we may need his help to keep these things named!
