Years have passed and Wally is a little boy now and he always wondered how he got his name, I know I shouldn't tell him because why tell your son that he was named after a stuffed animal that got thrown into a fireplace.

Anyway, I got up did everything I do in the morning and then I checked on Wally and he was sitting up in his bed. I walk in and I said "What are you doing up?"

He said "Couldn't sleep"

I said "Ok well do you need anything?"

He said "No I'm good"

I walked out into the kitchen and a few hours later and it was just me and Neal, Wally walked into the kitchen and he looked like he had something on his mind so I asked him "Hey sweetie, Do you need something?"

He asked me "Mom, why did you name me Wally?"

Neal was looking at me like, don't tell him.

Of course being his little sister I didn't listen to him and I start telling Wally about how he got his name and I just saw my brother being so annoyed with me, this wouldn't be the first time

I named you Wally because of your uncle"

He said "Thanks Mom for telling me this and would I be named this if you didn't do what you did"

I said "I don't know but I definitely didn't have any other names"

He just hugged me and then Neal came back into the kitchen and I said "Oh welcome back!"

He said "How'd it go?"

I said "He's fine with it so HA!"

He said "I guess I stand corrected"

I said "Yeah I guess you do, also don't tell me what I can and can not tell him unless you know it's really bad and you'll know he'll hate me for it if I do"

He just smiled like he always does.

I wanted to be annoyed with him but I couldn't and so I just smiled back
