I like Bo!

Bo Davis, do you know him? He is the son of Robby and Kelley Davis. He is 100% boy. I'd take him on as a grandson in a skinny minute. He is about 40 pounds of walking, stalking wildcat. He never stops grinning, moving or thinking. I watched him for about 2-3 minutes today as he stared out a window while his mother talked to him. I couldn't hear what was being said but I could look at Bo and see the wheels turning in his head. As soon as the talk ended he jumped down and started playing with his dad. With his finger as a pistol, his dad shot him at fairly close range. Bo, willing to go along, spun about and hit the floor, right in the middle of the restaurant. He lay there, pretending to be as dead as a hammer, like any fallen cowboy would. I was green with envy of both of them. Imagine not caring who came by as you lay dead on the floor at Schlotzsky's and imagine having a boy who you could shoot on the spur of the moment like that and know that he would gladly go along, without any rehearsal. How cool to be Bo and how blessed to be Bo's dad. Every one of you guys with little boys ought to thank the Lord for this time in your life.
