Scratch That

Okay, I thought we weren't getting another dog. My mistake.

It turns out that we do indeed have a new member of the family, and it's about as cute of an addition as one can make. It's a cuddly little havapoo – part havanese, part poodle.




His name is Maury. I name all of our pets in Greek and this seemed appropriate to the occasion. Our first dog is named Sophie, which means "wisdom." So naturally this little critter must be Maury, based on the Greek word, moros, which means "foolishness." He's our little vain conceit, our superfluous little bit of foolishness – but he's easy to love.

Maury is also a Latin name that means "dark skinned."
