Kimberly? That's your REAL Name?


Georgia's way of getting mine or Jeff attention is to call out our names "Kim!" or "Jeff!". In the sea of Mom and Dad, it does stand out and get our attention. So yesterday Andrew told Georgia that my real name was Kimberly. Georgia was quick to respond with "No it's Kim or Mom." Andrew made the push to say that it really was Kimberly. She turns to me with that shocked expression. Looks at me and says "WHAT? Kimberly??" I say yes it is and thought that was the end of it.


5 minutes ago...


Georgia: "Your name is KIMBERLY? REALLY?"


Me: "Yes, really. Memaw named me Kimberly Kay but a lot of people call me Kim."


Georgia: "Yes, i call you Kim. But I think I like your name Mom better."


Me: "I like my name as Mom too sweetie."

She is Going To Be 11...



Where did the time go? We used to call her our porcelain baby doll. Her skin was so creamy white when she was a baby. I remember when she chased her brother around the house because he had freckles and she didn't... she is still our freckle face.
