As I was reading about a memory my niece had of my brother; I started thinking about the children she mentioned also. I remember that way back then we had nicknames for almost all of our children. CF's four boys, RB's three girls then his son Ron Jr. My sister Nancy's two (that I gave them) and my two (that Nancy named) What fun to call them or just talk to them, using their special name and hear them answer. I wonder if they remember what the names were. I'm not telling unless I'm asked cause you can get in BIG trouble name dropping!! : )
This is short but if they all respond it will grow. And for all of you great nieces and nephews, if you had a nickname growing up, let's hear it.

Let's see...
I was "Shoe", Sherry was "Bear" when she was little, and after Ronnie was born, she became "Fred" and he was called "Barney" - Dad still refers to them as Fred and Barney, btw! I seem to remember Kelly being called "Dink" a time or two, but other than that, nothing comes to mind. Danny was called Dan-Dan, although Dad called him "Nad-Nad" a couple times! I remember Danny would get so mad, stomp his little foot and say, " NO! I DAN-DAN!"
As for the cousins, you will have to share that with me! I want to know!

These were not the ones I remember, except Kelly's. The ones I was talking about were given when you were like 1, 2, and 3 years old. You probably don't remember. Maybe your dad does.
Hi S,
Well, I just looked at your last (a loooong time ago) entry and
wondered if you were going to have time to write again. I missed it.
I only remember my kids nicknames and wouldn't reveal them to anyone
under any circumstances for fear of reprisal on their part. Am I
afraid of my kids? You betcha. When you get to the age where you
could see nursing home in your future it is always best to be
cautious. HaHa. Just kidding, but I'm still not telling.
Good to see you back, Sis.
Love,
CF
You are so right CF. Hmmm; if memory serves me correctly, you used to be called something in your high school years too, weren't you? And of course, everyone knows our oldest brother was referred to as RB and he still is. He did have a name for me also but it's been put to rest for a long time. (thank God)
