Wow – she sure is cute. She never stops smiling and what a smile! She has a great sense of humor, silly but adorable. No other boyfriend in sight (always a plus) and apparently plenty of friends of her own, so she’s popular but not snotty about it. Always nicely dressed without being a style queen. She clearly merits more careful study.

What’s in a (Nick)name?
The Key to my Heart
“Most of us have nicknames—annoying, endearing, embarrassing.
But what about your true name?
It is not necessarily your given name. But it is the one to which you are most eager to respond when called.
Ever wonder why?
Your true name has the secret power to call you.”
