Awwww! This post made me cry! They do grow up so fast, don’t they? I can’t believe how big he’s gotten!

I find it hard to believe that my little nephew, Kenny is now 1 year and 4 months old. Seems like just yesterday that he came into our lives! *sigh*

Awww, he’s growing up!

My 12 yr old is named Jacob and from day one I told people that his name was Jacob, not Jake! If I wanted him to be called Jake I would have named it Jake. He wants to be called Jake. In school all his teachers know him as ‘Jake’, all his friends, everyone he happens to give his name to. I’m losing. He’s old enough to decide for himself, and for some reason that makes me weepy!

Awwww, that’s so sweeeet – but sad – but sweeeet. We’ve had lots of people try to call Anthony “Tony” – and at first, I’d say “HIS NAME IS ANTHONY” – but now HE corrects them too LOL He doesn’t have a nick-name, but Libby does and so does Zachy LOL Dunno why Anthony doesn’t work as a Tony but it just doesn’t.

Breaks a little piece of your heart doesn’t it?

We have a Johnathan, and I, like you said that we would only call him Johnathan. Then he figured out that Johnny was a lot easier to write in school and requested to be called that. *Sigh…they grow up so fast!

Aw, he’s cute. It’s funny how it worked opposite for us. When we had our last daughter, Alisha, I wanted to call her Ally. It never stuck. She’s always been Alisha, and now she’s 9. Maybe when she gets to high school I can pay her friends to start calling her Ally. That way it’ll be cool!
My middle daughter actually gave herself her nickname of many years, Bekahree. When she was a toddler if you asked what her name was she would say “Bekahree”. Her name is Rebekah Marie. Now she’s just goes by Bekah. Growing up is sad sometimes.
