Flower's Nicknames
River wrote Flower's name on her card. This takes me to Flower's
nicknames. When River was just learning to talk she couldn't say
'flower' and it came out 'wowie'. Then as she talked a bit better it
became 'flowie' until eventually she could say Flower. However, the
nicknames stuck and we've called her wowie or flowie throughout her
life. Just in the last 6 months she has been bothered by it and thinks
we are making fun of her. We keep trying to explain that they are a term
of endearment and we use these nicknames because we love her. Then
River wrote Flower's name on the envelope....Flomer. We told Flower we'd
just start calling her Flomer instead and all of a sudden she loves
Flowie! Hahaha. I love that all of her nicknames have been due to
River.
