Karl the Buffalo


Gavin continues to crack me up...the other day our neighbors gave him this ratty looking stuffed animal buffalo, which I'm sure was in their Goodwill box on it's way out, but Gavin rescued it. Anyway after they gave it to him they said "What are you going to name it? It needs to have a tough name because it's a buffalo." Gavin thought about it for a minute and without any help to come up with a creative name he decided on "Karl". I don't know why that strikes me as funny, I just thought it was hilarious. That night at the dinner table I was telling Matt what Gavin had named his buffalo and Matt asked him "Gavin, why did you name him KARL?", to which Gavin replied "Because he didn't have a name!" Ha ha ha! He is so dang funny!
