Mom thought she would be clever tonight and show you where my name comes from...Lincoln Logs. This happened to be one of her favorite toys as a child. Boy was she a simple kid. Anyway...take a look at just how clever she was...take note...no doors or windows on the little log cabin.

That's a very creative toy..... imagine you feel very honoured to be named for such an important part of her life!

lol is that the wood ones they had when we were kids or are they the plastic ones that are out now? I loved my Lincoln Logs

[Denise Vetromile]

And here I thought you were named after the president ... thanks for sharing!

[Janet Hutnik]

Me too...you look presidential!

It could be worse, Lincoln... she could have built one of those around your treat jar!

[Frances A Robinson]

Awww, I love it that your Mom was such a simple kid. And how sweet to know the origin of your name.

[Kathleen Setier]

How funny. I must confess, when I first read your name I automatically but "Log" on the end. I've been secretly calling you "Lincoln Log". They must have been a favorite toy of mine too.

Is there a monkey inside that little cabin?

[Sue Stephenson (Swazzette)]

When I hear the name "Lincoln"...I think "Lincoln convertible". Uh-oh! Watch out, little Lincoln...I see a possible buzz-cut in your future! :-)

I love the name....because it's so original! :) Cute picture!

[Susan Klassen]

Very cute picture as always, and it's nice to know where the name came from and for that matter who wouldn't love Lincoln logs.

I was so excited. =D he is so danged cute! and I got to see a pic of you too! I said nice to meet you in my head lol! yay so cool!

Aha, so that's where Lincoln got his name! I went to the blog to check out the additional pics.... that second one from the top where he put his head down was my favorite. So cute. I just want to give him a big hug.
