Amanda's been reading (well, actually re-reading) books from the Ivy & Bean series. Ivy & Bean are two girls about Amanda's age. I wish I could tell you more, but I haven't read them myself. Anyway, she was reading one of the books on the way to church this morning ...
Megan: Ivy? What kind of name is "Ivy"?
Amanda: A good one, that's what.
Megan: I don't like it.
Amanda: Who cares what you think?
Megan: Why would anyone name their daughter "Ivy"?
Amanda: You'll understand when you grow up.
Me: Why will she understand when she grows up? She may still dislike the name "Ivy".
Amanda: No. She'll like the name when she's older and understands what names are good.
Me: Sure she will.
I find it interesting that Megan doesn't like the name "Ivy", but "Bean" is apparently completely acceptable.
Tracey ~ No offense to your sweet daughter whose nickname happens to be "Bean". XOXO
