Yes, Boo's his nickname, but everyone calls him that. He can't even spell his real name (Christopher). I'm making him use his real name on his First Communion banner, and he was so bummed, because nobody will know it's him, that I consented to write "Boo" under his real name.


Lorri: Be sure to tell Boo that he's famous in our house!


I can't believe there is a Kolbe James and a James Kolbe.....

I read your blog this morning before I read this post. I was laughing so hard! Boo is so famous because of his nickname. It's particularly funny during soccer season, when he scores a goal, or stops one, all the parents on our side yell "Booooooooo!" I always wonder how long it takes the other side to realize we're cheering, not heckling him.

BTW, his birthday is October 31 - which is how he came to be called Boo.

- Nicholas in VA
- Kolbe James in VA (very special hugs and prayers to Kolbe and his family)
- Mary Elizabeth in NC
- Katherine in San Diego

And prayers for anyone we left off the list. We wish you all a blessed and joyful weekend.

Oops! Mary's is actually May 6th. We are trying to make sure we've got everything ready today. :-) I just sprung for a store-bought sheet cake for tomorrow. We're having a cookout at my parents' house afterwards.
