My First Post

I guess I will start by explaining the title of my blog. Mos is my nickname from Billy. He has called me that for years and says it in his cards, letters, notes, and voicemails. It came about first as Most Beautiful and then went to Most and finally down to Mos. It fits well in my family as everyone has weird nick names. I am Mimi Mae in my family which is short for Mendy mae. My neices and nephews even call me Aunt mimi which I love and my mom has called me Mimi Mae since I was a baby. I love nicknames. They just add so much depth and kinship in our family unit and among those closest to us.
Now Mos Dos is Tanner. Also given to him by his daddy It just means he is Most Beautiful the second. I love it!! Billy first said it when we were home from the hospital and all a new family of three. It fits.
I am so happy to be starting a new blog. I had one before that Billy and I tried to keep up with when I was pregnant but it has since faded. So now a new chapter of my life has begun and thus a new blog with it.
I am learning a lot by staying home with Tanner and I am so grateful to be able to do so. A few moms from my Mops group also blog and some even have theirs printed out into journals which I feel is a great idea. I look forward to this new outlet and expressing myself here.

  1. Love the nicknames! I have the usual nicknames, but only from specific people. If I pick up the phone and someone says, "Dot..." then I know it's my oldest brother. If someone says, "Miss Dottie" I immediately know who it is. I love the closeness and familiarity that comes with nicknames.
