Not So Fast Henry

I hesitated to write this post but I am writing it. I am not competitive - not much anyway. I suggested names for a " Name That Boy Contest" for Ann Kroeker's new book, Not So Fast. Two of my suggestions are finalists. Even if one of my choices wins, my choices were suggested by others. So, there would be a second random drawing.

So... I have been trying to decide if I should post a link and ask you (beg you) to go vote for my name. What would be the point since I am planning on buying the book? And, I might not even win if my name wins.

Well...

If I win, I could give the book to a friend... maybe even a blog friend. If you go to vote, you might check out Ann's blog- she's fun and inspiring. If you go vote, you will get a glimpse of her new book - and boy it looks good! Don't hesitate to trek over to the book website: Not So Fast

Oh well, this post just proves I am not all together.

Go visit Ann's "Name that boy Poll" and Vote for HENRY.

Yes, there are other cute suggestions. Some of the suggestions are more creative. I know that.

I just took my children's names and some of their cousins's names and entered those. For those of you that know about my nephew Hank, his nickname is Hank. Henry is his "given" name.

Go VOTE. Vote for Henry.

Oh, and make me smile by telling me in my comments you voted for Henry. You know because, that will make me feel happy - instead of shameless and crazy.

And, by the way, if you want to know what's on my mind this week, visit my last post: Rocks in the Sand.

Okay, I did it. Can I do it again tomorrow??
I think Henry and Thomas are the best ones. Cuz Jasper sorta sounds like a dog name, doesn't it? It's cute though. :)

I'm going to go vote, then read rocks in my sand. Knowing you...your name will probably win. Loved the teasing by the way, had to get one back on you. Wait until you see my less than perfect child's post today... =)Let's hope it doesn't offend anybody.
