If Elsie Ja...Does Judy have related grandchildren? If Elsie Jane is her only one, I can understand her wanting to be called by a special name. Think of what sounds babies make first and use the sounds to refer to Judy. I did not get the impression that Judy wanted to be called grandma but if Miss Judy is not going to work, perhaps another inane baby sound would catch on: Honey, Poppy, JuJu, for example...MomTgiguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12591009029270218458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376342233034508928.post-85899066400337154642009-10-09T12:22:13.762-05:002009-10-09T12:22:13.762-05:00I think Miss Judy is appropriate and respectful. I...I think Miss Judy is appropriate and respectful. I think it helps teach little ones respect. I agree about the g'ma thing . . . being one myself, I don't want my buckaroo calling anyone g'ma except those of us that are his grandmas. He may find a nickname for us or a way to differientiate between us (seeing myself being grandma vrrrrrooom vrrrrrooom :-)Motorcycle grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17710120436828088339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376342233034508928.post-64741963929015642942009-10-09T10:11:09.155-05:002009-10-09T10:11:09.155-05:00Miss Judy or JJ both sound fine (Miss J...haha lik...Miss Judy or JJ both sound fine (Miss J...haha like on ANTM). They don't sound like grandparent names, and if Elsie and J continue to spend time together, Elsie can decide on her own if she's a grandmother type. I had a g-ma figure when I was young and I called her Mrs. Catozella (her name, I wasn't allowed to call adults by their first names), and she was like a g-ma to me b/c of our relationship, not what I called her. Plus, all my grandparents lived far away. :)<br /><br />"In the past month, Eli has started reaching for objects, grasping them, and putting them in her mouth to chew on--including her pacifier;"<br /><br />Did you mean to put Els? I don't know if I ever told you how cute I think her name is. And I never even THOUGHT about the milk cow when I heard it. I did meet the cow at the fair last weekend though, and she was REEEEAL cute, just like your baby! Ok, long comment, have a great weekend!Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06042990468401943267noreply@blogger.com
