The thing that is funny to me is the nicknames that some kids pick out for the Grandmas and Grandpas. I know some kids that have named their granparents: Mamaw, Nana, Lola, Papi, Grandpa, and even Pompaw. You make think some of these names don't make any sense, but others have very sincere signs of appreciation and respect. I call my grandparents Sweet Mama and Sir, and I know that they sound funny, but they have a story behind them. The name of my Grandma, Sweet Mama, is because when my oldest cousin was just a baby she said "your very sweet Mama." The name of my Grandpa, Sir, is because of right before he was going to have a grandkid he wanted all of them to call him Sir so they can show respect. Now when everytime we see them we address them at Sweet and Sira.
