Nicknames and Something I Don't Understand

Do you have nicknames for your kids? Do you use them in public?

The other day Daughter and I were at the checkout counter at the drugstore and I called her "sweet pea." The cashier got a funny look on her face and asked Daughter: "Does Mommy really call you 'sweet pee?'"

Hello, no. It is not "pee." It's "pea." As in the sweet pea plant.

My mom used to call me that when I was younger, so it just carried over to my kids.

Seriously, do people really think I'd call my daughter urine?

MOVING ON...

I don't understand this whole MySpace thing. I really don't. I mean, I have a page and some friends, but I hardly ever go over there. I don't see what all the hype is. Maybe I'm too old, I don't know, but I have more fun with this here blog.

At any rate, you can certainly go visit my MySpace page, boring though it may be.

Haaahaa! I call my daughter all sorts of things, depending on her behavior. Usually, she's a "punkin seed," but if she's ornery, I call her "stinkbottom." It has nothing to do with odor, because she's a "little lady" as well.

I suppose if I were to call Daughter what I usually call her --"poopypants"-- I'd probably get reported to Childrens' Services.

Sheesh.

How come your "Who I'd Like To Meet" category is blank? Shouldn't you at least add Ewen McGregor (I probably didn't spell that right) ?

Well, I did have that there, but then we became "friends" and I thought that might look tacky. And I couldn't really say "I want to see Ewan McGregor naked and in person" now could I?

Case made, counselor (LOL)!

Branch and Blossom have a couple of nicknames, some of which are in Spanish. So most gringos around here don't get it. That's fine with me.
