Our family collects nicknames, I don't know why. I'm currently trying to get peeps to call me "Kitty," so far my family refuses but a few good friends are complying :)
Hubby
Honey
Poohter
Sparticles
Sushibar
Baby
Cookie
Tippy Toes
... on and on
Whenever we can't sleep hubby sings Beautiful Boy (girl) for us. I love his version, it's slower and softer than John Lennon's original.
The rule is he has to sing it three times if I'm really anxious. He loves me :)
I'm not doing a very good job recording video (for shame since that was my major) but I'm doing my best to keep up with the challenge with everything else going on. Caitlin has come down with strep, so we definitely need some lullabies tonight.
She is 15 and was a grouch for the first 12 years of her life, until Caitlin stopped being afraid of her. Then Caitlin won over the grouchy Kitty. And Kitty joined the family... and even leaves our room now, and asks for cuddles, and follows us into the bathroom.
Caitlin is the Kitty whisperer.
As a side note, I've been trying to get "Kitty" as my nickname (as in the character Kitty from That 70's Show, she's hilarious!). My family is not cooperating, but I've got three friends that call my Kitty... and I l-o-v-e it!
Ah, my 13-year-old. Such a talented girlie with such an irritation for her mother. I did finally get her to agree to speak to my camera (kind of) about her passion for art and illustration.
