My Name




Koen: (with pen and paper in hand) Mimi how do you write your name?

Me: M like Mom . . . (he writes) . . . i with a dot (he writes) . . . M like Mom or McDonald's (a little light in his eyes) and another i with a dot (we do not worry about upper and lower case and I love how pre-schoolers do dots)

Koen: that's how? That's your whole name? (happy boy)



Maybe the moment was special because I never get that kind of reaction with my name. 
My grandson thinks my name is easy!

And the first picture . . .
in case it was not as obvious as he thought it was . . .
that's me!

That's crazy how a simple thing like a picture and a name drawn so lovingly can bring tears to my eyes. I love that he drew his Mimi with a smile and open arms ready for a hug.
