I like to call my girls all kinds of terms of endearment just for fun. Actual names are hardly used at home. Everyday when I reach home, upon opening the front door, I’d holler, “Minions! I’m home!!!” This went on for awhile, then I changed.
“Pimples! I am home!!!” or “Pimples, good night.” before bedtime.
Pimples? Well it sounds more personal than ‘people’ and it sort of rolls off the tongue.
One day, M2 complained, “Mommy, you shouldn’t call us ‘pimples’ cos I am getting a lot of it! It’s like a jinx. You should call us ‘brains’ or ‘beautiful skin’ so that we get these instead!”
Such brilliance from this child of mine.
So now the term of endearment is, “Beautiful brains! I am home!”
