TEX

Yes. Tex. As in Texas. The state, the big, masculine span of land next to Arkansas. This is what Anna Christina Telford Cording, also known as John's sister, wants Quincy to call her. Not Aunt Chris or Auntie, but Tex.

Tex lives in Virginia and grew up in Texas. She is and always will be a Texan by heart. I do have to remind her, and quite often, that she was born in the great state of Arkansas. Land of Opportunity. The Natural State. WhhoooooPigsSuuuiee! Go Hogs Go!

Tex flew in on October 4 and stayed for 10 days. We want to hire her on as a nanny! She cooked, cleaned, babysat, worked at John's office, filled our cars with gas, gave us Target gift cards, gave us Kroger gift cards, and oh even the world wide web isn't big enough to list all the things that she bought for her nephew! She even sent us on a date with her credit card! How is that for awesome sister-in-law? So, I think that I'll abide by her wishes and call her Tex.

Here is a picture of her and Q.
