4 KIDS NO DOG and a BABY

4 KIDS NO DOG and a BABY

April 10, 2008

A very confused child

Any of you with siblings know that parents typically do a role call before they get the child's name right. And if they get it right on the first call, its a good day. At least I hope I am not alone in this name forgetting phenomenon.

So our sweet little Em, doesn't know her name. Well at least she professes to not know it or at least say it. When we are out at the store or anywhere and someone asks her her name she quickly replies, "two."

But lately the conversation goes like this:

What's your name?
"ummm....BetBet...noo." (big grin)
No, what's your name?
"ummm .....Timmy...nooo" (big grin, head twist)
No, what's your name?
"ummmm....crin..noo" (big grin, body twist)
No, what's your name?
"ummm....Daddy.."
No, whats your name?
"ummmm...Geg"
No, whats your name?
"two"

So she knows everyone's name but her own and I blame myself, because I can never get her name right either. I guess we should have named her Two. And as far as blogging goes, maybe that is what I will refer to her as..."Two."

That is so funny. I know my mom called me Snowball after our cat once. I think I get McCall and Maycie mixed up the most.
love you, Jae
