A little Dr. Seuss for your afternoon

Dr. Seuss on naming your children (wise, wise words)

Too Many Daves

Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave
Had twenty-three sons, and she named them all Dave?
Well, she did. And that wasn?t a smart thing to do.
You see, when she wants one, and calls out ?Yoo-Hoo!
Come into the house, Dave!? she doesn?t get one.
All twenty-three Daves of hers come on the run!
This makes things quite difficult at the McCaves?
As you can imagine, with so many Daves.
And often she wishes that, when they were born,
She had named one of them Bodkin Van Horn.
And one of them Hoos-Foos. And one of them Snimm.
And one of them Hot-Shot. And one Sunny Jim.
Another one Putt-Putt. Another one Moon Face.
Another one Marvin O?Gravel Balloon Face.
And one of them Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate?
But she didn?t do it. And now it?s too late

Cute - I've never heard this one. My husband is a Dave - the narcisist in him will love it.
