Please, someone tell me you picked up on the double meaning in my last post, a novel idea. Please? Even if you didn’t? I think God will forgive you, and I’ll feel better. Win win. Anyone?
a little about namesake
Dale Pratt lives in Colorado with Renee, his wife of 23 years, and their 11 children, ranging in ages from 21 years to two years. He enjoys reading, running, writing, eating, long talks with friends and a cup of coffee, and making breakfast for the kids. Dale loves his family and adores Jesus. Other than that, he's really no one of consequence.

Uhm, sure. I got it. (watching for lightening…)
Seriously, yes. I even forwarded your post to my son so that he could enjoy the novel, novelty!

You’re so clever. I would also argue that you convey sarcasm quite well, but that might just be that this audience member lives and breathes sarcasm a bit too much. Keep reading and writing. I think He will forgive us all… For our sarcasm, for John’s embellishments, and all of our lack of perspective. What a novel idea…

Heather – Was that sarcastic?
