I believe it is from the German descent and is pronounced as 'Kronz'. <br /><br />Although, we struggle at times with our son, we too, feel very blessed to have him in our life.<br /><br />Thanks again for your comments and for visiting our blog. We hope you will visit us again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14960619433445604285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5521421597834150034.post-20082230167577597632012-07-16T15:32:07.382-04:002012-07-16T15:32:07.382-04:00Michelle, found your sweet blog via Nancy Ward'...Michelle, found your sweet blog via Nancy Ward's's blog, Paper Friendly:<br />http://www.paperfriendly.blogspot.com<br />You're one of the few other families with the last name "Kranz" --and <b>NOT</b> "Krantz"-- that I've ever found! Although it's my married name (my maiden name was even worse to get anyone to spell correctly), I just have to ask: How do you pronounce it?<br /><br />My husband's family pronounces it as if the <i><b>a</b></i> is an <i><b>o</b></i>: <i>"kronz"</i>, not with the short "a" sound. Whenever I type our name in MS Word, the spellchecker tries to tell me that the word I really need is "crayons"!<br /><br />Congratulations on your adorable little boy! We, too, are parents of an only child, and we were blessed with her after what sounds like a similar medical journey. However, our daughter is 24 and just finished grad school, so many of your parenting adventures are lovely reminders for me!<br />Best Wishes,<br />MaryMary O.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15590629059771412527noreply@blogger.com
