My children's real-life nicknames are Moo, Boo and Doph. Don't ask me why. In the way of nicknames, they have simply evolved. Minnie 2, at 2-1/2, has only started referring to herself by her proper name in the last few weeks. Before then, she always called herself Moo Moo.
We've had some beautiful weather the last few days. I think Spring may actually have come to New England. (I whisper this, of course, so as not to disturb Murphy and his bag of tricks.) The first nice day, we played outside all afternoon. Spring sunshine combined with winter-dry cheeks resulted in a hot pink face for Minnie 2 by bedtime. She padded in to see Daddy in her PJ's. He took one look at her face and reached out a hand to feel her forehead in concern.
"Are you sick?" he asked.
"No," she replied, "I not sick. I Moo Moo."
And there you have it.
