Hunter? Is that REALLY his name??

If you can believe it, that was a question i had been asked when Hunter was only 3 by some ditzy flake inquiring young lady. I was completely dumbfounded and when i told her that it was his name, she had that insert-foot-into-mouth look on her face. You know the “How far along are you?” [...]

How sweet was this?!?
