Tough crowd!  She's wearing modern shoes with closed toes, pants, and a shirt that literally calls back to her family's ridiculous rules and there are still 35 things wrong with what she's doing.

That's okay. He's forgotten it a few times himself.

of my kids, the two boys ended up with hazel (both Mr Jyn and I have brown eyes, though his are more decidedly brown, and most people in both our immediate families have blue to grey-hazel eyes.). My older son's eyes could almost fall under green, but only a dark olive green bordering on brown, and my younger son's are pretty much the definition of hazel in that you can't even put a real name to the color, but it's the sort of brown which is sometimes green on grey depending on any number of other circumstances. My daughter's are the same chocolate brown as Mr Jyn's,, but they were all but black until she was about a year old, and my granddaughter's are pretty much like hers - at just about 5 months you can only really see the difference between her pupil and iris if you pay attention, but they are a very dark chocolate brown right now. Her husband's eyes look brown to me as well, but he swears they have green in them.

There's Hannie for Johanna.  And JessaBlessa, of course. 

I can understand ‘Hannie’. When you give your children nearly identical sounding names (Jana, Joyanna and Johanna), nicknames for a couple of them makes things easier. Of course, the easiest thing would have been to give them less similar names in the first place.

I know I'm a grumpy old woman, but I hate nicknames.

 

I’m not old but I think nicknames are for babies or people with severe mental disabilities. Not grown adults who are self aware autonomous beings. Of course I call people what they like but what’s wrong with legal names?!

Oh, I'm not THAT old either. Yet. But I've always hated nicknames and acronyms and generally  any type of  legitimate shortening of words. See what I did there?.)

I know there is Spurg and Izzy for the grandkids, but Do any of the Duggar kids have nicknames except for Jilly-Muffin?

They had a bunch of them listed on their chore chart. Jackson is "Shack," Jennifer is "WerWer" (besides "Jenni," I guess), Tyler they apparently call "TyTy." Michelle's nickname was listed as "Mama" ?

I don't think the Dullards use Izzy. They always seem to use his full name. They do use Sam for Samuel. Also, the Seewalds use Spurgie, not Spurge, for Spurgeon. I'm sure that will change as he grows out of the infantalized version of his name.

I imagine poor Spurgeon, in adulthood, will wish he could grow out of any version of that name. Poor kid.

I was named my legal name by my dad, so he could call me my shortened name because “it’s a cute nickname for a girl.”  The people I’m closest to call me by my nickname. I only use my legal name for work.

I was born in the 60's.  My hair fell out when I was about 2 months old and nothing grew in until I was just over 2 years old.  My mother Scotch Taped Satin bows to my bare head so folks would figure out I was a girl.  Because, ya know, the pink ruffle dresses, with the tights and pretty shoes wouldn't have clued anyone in.  True story.  

Early 1950s, same thing here. And I was the firstborn. My poor mom! She tried cute bonnets but I wasn’t having it.

Ok, it’s AUGUST when she took that pic.  The hat is adorable, but I’m not sure she needs that knit in Texas in August.  Makes me hot to look at it.

dang, she’s cute

Well you know how some indoor places in the south are refrigerated to frigid!  I always bring a big sweater every place we go.  Or they are just trying it on for show.   How are you doing?
