Dear Bria-

I forgot one other word that you've been using a lot lately-cheese!  I've been spoiling our family with cheese sticks and you can very clearly say cheese.  It is the cutest thing.  Especially because you get so excited about your cheese.

I also forgot to mention that you have yet to develop a case of stranger danger.  You're definitely cautious in unfamiliar circumstances and you are not the biggest fan of your Uncle Dwain, poor guy.  BUT, you are not afraid to go up to other people and interact with them.

A few weeks ago at the library, you sat in a complete stranger's lap.  The poor lady already had kids but you kept right on sitting there.  Embarrassingly enough, you didn't even want to come to me!  At the end of story time, I actually had to grab you out of her lap.

Your dad has started calling you Bree Bree and I HATE that nickname.  I've always hated nicknames that repeat the same word twice.  It's somewhat pointless because it's not even shortening the name and it makes you and the person saying it sound like a baby.  You are a baby and so no problems there  though.

Anyway, once I told your dad my feelings on the subject, he has been such a sport and has worked really hard not to call you that name.  If you nickname a future child a word used twice, I refuse to use the nickname.  Just letting you know now.  Oh, I also refuse to call any of your children Bubba.  Yuck.  Shivers.  If you actually name your children a word twice or Bubba, I will respectively call them what you named them.  Probably won't even mention how much I hate it.  But I can't imagine anyone being idiotic enough to actually do that to a child.

I love you Bria,
~Mom
