Awww…
You remember when you were in the womb and there was much conversation about what your parents would name you….?
No?
well, I bet it was a lot like the warm fuzzies I got reading the comments on the Name Me post. Thanks for even caring, or suggesting, or offering to do geneological searches! (wow, Lorie! And skip the next little paragraph, because the geneology buff in you will faint.)
So I think the consensus is Kilgore. (I like it too. Someone in my family please remind me of whose name it was. i think I know. But I’m not sure.)
I sort of slipped that bit of information in - about the book contract - sort of… offhandedly because it had been ‘in the mail’ but not yet arrived. It’s here now. It’s real. I can officially be excited! And I needed a name in place before I could sign it, so thank you.
I think i’ll go to bed now, assume the calming relaxing fetal position, and sleep. This baby’s got NAME!
(BUT COME BACK do yourself a favor and already have done your BSE, ‘kay? Cause I’m feeling feisty, and the nagging started early this month!)

It was Lizzie, Granddaddy’s mother. I’m glad you went with it - it’s a good name.

Love it! It’s a great name, and you sound like a wonderful suspense author now. Start typing out that romantic mystery next.
Still close to Karen Kingsbury on the shelf, too
: ) She’ll love being surrounded by the likes of sweet, little you!
I’m so thrilled for you, Kelsey. You did it!! Maybe I can follow in your footsteps some day.

I have to tell you…today when I signed on to my blog to post, there was your little logo reminding me to do my BSE (which I did)…were it not for you, I don’t think I’d be remembering to do it at all! (second time — four more till I get the crown!) woo hoo!

BSE - check! Thanks for the reminder, I love what you’re doing here, and my gals are all checked out for March!
