What's in a name?

We have a few little nicknames around here for each other and it's fun to see the kids pick up on them. Rowan and Miriam frequently call Griffith, G, Little G, or Griff. And Rowan will call Miriam, Miss Miri or Mimi. One of my favourites has been when Rowan or Miri call me Babe. But today while we were eating breakfast Miriam told us she was too small to play at a certain playground because "I'm just a little guy." Rowan thought this was a pretty funny thing to say and replied, "You're not a guy! You're a Little Lefty!" Miriam nodded her head with her little side smirk and said, "Yeah."

Rowan and our Little Lefty may not know what it means to be left handed, but I'm thinking they know they're loved :-)
