Nicknames Revisited

I have been reading the blogs of others ever since I started my own. They are interesting, noteworthy, odd, funny, pretty, and some make you shake your head.

One thing I have noticed on many blogs is the use of nicknames. Many bloggers use them in place of the names of their family members and friends. I like that. I think from now on I will do the same.

In one of my earlier blogs I wrote about the nicknames my family members have or have given to one another. My daughter's nickname is Yam and my son's is Spud. I will be using these nicknames for my progeny and refer to my hero-husband as The Colonel.
