Messing Around

11:12 AM, 2006-Nov-1 .. Posted in Family Life .. 1 comments .. Link
I've started messing with my side bar here . . . . . .
I deleted the book list I had and in its place I have added The Wagner Clan and am working on adding little tid-bits for the family.
I have grown quite tired of calling my family DH, DD9, DD6 and DS2. It is just sooooo impersonal to me- and I am such a personable person!  LOL
So I am in the process of renaming them. I just knew after reading Created To Be His Help Meet (not quite done reading it yet) that my DH must be called Mr. Steady. And with DS2 going around here wearing his conductor's hat and bellowing, "All Aboard! Chug, chug, chug, chug," well- it was only natural for him to become Mr. Conductor. My daughters- well, I just haven't found the knickname that is IT yet for either of them.
I've been thinking of Maiden in Waiting for DD9 as she is learning so much but I have seen that term used quite a bit on other blogs and I am sooooo not one for being a copy cat. LOL But boy- does that name fit her. Perhaps I will relent and use it. Hmm. Must think more on that.
I am totally stumped for DD6. Mayhap I am taxing my brain a bit much.
I will think more on this later.

I love the nicknames you've chosen so far, my favorite is your Maiden in Waiting. That one is very nice : o ) I think it's a wonderful idea to do this. I grew tired of calling my kids and husband DH and DD4 and so forth as well. Enjoy finding the other nicknames : o ) Love your blog, please keep writing!

The Wagner Clan

My Husband (DH)-
Mr. Steady

My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.

DD12- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.

DD9- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added sweet flavor to our family.

DS5- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He's the little man and best helper around! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
