Me too

I am ready for a decision too & can live with whatever is decided by all but am glad everyone has had a chance to weigh in. A difficult discussion but I think a necessary one. Not sure if I should apologize?

I agree that we should have the chance to opt in/out. Although it is trickier, I would guess that we might be able to keep some of it the same. What about if we ask mom & dad to be the check-in point and they are in charge of reassigning names as needed? Not that Julie can't but I think it would eat up some time to figure it out. Also, I would suggest people email the name-keeper direct rather than post.

We also need a decision about godchildren/parents. Seems all agree the cutoff of 21 makes sense. That really leaves our two (I don't think the 4th generation has in-family godparents?) and Sara who is just shy of 21.

Our family was always good for a rousing discussion which we can leave at the table. Love to you all, Les

PS- I don't know the hippopotomaus song but can someone bring it to Thanksgiving?
PSS- I was busy in Minnesota but have the salon pics to post. The team worked hard this weekend & Chrissy is a great project manager!
