Blue Grammy

Ok, this actually happened a little while ago but I forgot about it until today, when we saw an older woman in the apartment hallway...

Brianna has gotten to the stage where she calls anyone obviously not an adult a kid, then women she thinks are roughly my age are all called Mommy (unless she knows their name specifically), and any woman she thinks is older than that are all Grammy's to her. Well, the other day as we were leaving our apartment complex we saw an elderly lady out on her patio. As Trav was loading Bree into the car she pointed and said "Ud-doh (other) grammy." (As in, it's not my Grammy, but look, there's a grammy.) But, Travis misheard her and thought she said "eddo (yellow) grammy." (An easy mistake to make in baby babble.) So, trying to tease her he said, "No, that's not a yellow Grammy silly that's a blue grammy." So Brianna pointed again and said "blue grammy," and we laughed a little at her expense. (So terrible of us, I know.) We'd forgotten all about it by the time we came back from playing at the park. However, as we pulled back into our parking spot there was the same woman, still out on her patio. Bree pointed her out again and said "blue grammy," so proud of herself for remembering to say it "right," like Daddy had told her.

I just wanted to say that your post "Blue Grammy" was so cute. I have a niece who's name is Brianna as well and she is an amazing talker, sometimes you have to be careful what you say around her because she will repeat it, more than once. LOL :o)

Yes, we've found this is the case with our own Brianna quite frequently. :)
