Ray of Sunshine

The other night we are driving to Wal-mart - my favorite store....not. I find myself there quite a bit though. Anywho, we are driving there, Brent, myself, and the kids. A couple of miles from my house is a flower shop. Almost everyday, this flower shop posts a name on their sign. Well, it says if your name is _________, and they put the name in, come in for a free flower. Usually they are some off the wall name, not all of the time, but quite often. So on this trip to Wal-mart we drive past the flower shop and it the sign says if your name is Ray come in for a free flower. Well, like normal we ask the kids, "do you know anyone with the name of Ray?"
My lovely, wonderful, son says (and this would be Garrett), "yea, my name, Ray of Sunshine!"
He was dead, freakin' serious. Brent and I started laughing, and said, "are you serious? You said that with a straight face. Bet you can't say it again that way, saying it five times fast." Which he did.
So, henceforth, Garrett is now known as RAY of SUNSHINE!!!! We threatened to tell his scout leaders, I still think we will do it. He is never going to live this one down.
