Why Didn't I Think of That?

Davis:  "Mom.  What should I name my bear?"
I offer several names I think are suitable for a stuffed bear.
Davis:  "No.  I want something like Mouse-Mouse or Duck-Duck, but he isn't a mouse or a duck."
Me:  "So . . . Bear-Bear?"
Davis:  "Yeah, thats it! Thanks!"

Things always seem so obvious in retrospect.

I think this must be exactly what it must feel like to Dean when I try to get his input on anything.

This also proves that creative collaboration really works.

Why do we even try?
Honestly, most of our stuffed animals are just named by type and defining characteristic (ie, Yellow Bear, New Monkey, Old Monkey...). I don't even give creativity a chance.
Oh, and the word verification is "rehell". Somehow, I think it's perfect.
