a name...

DSC_0606
so the day this picture was taken this little guy didn't have a name
but I did
I was sure I would be nonni
Santino
this day
I am not so sure
it seems too unusual a name
too different
needing explanation
I wanted to just be a grandma
nothing different
with no explanation
grandma
nonni
this day
I do a little research
nonna
nonno
nonni...plural of grandparents?!?!
nonnina...little grandmother
tutu...hawaiian
lola...filipino
noni...in hawaiian means beautiful girl OR frail old woman...

so maye now we are onto something!

Just got caught up on your story. Glad to hear you made it to Germany in time. Congratulations on a beautiful grandson. You have a lovely family!
