Today we want to wish GAGGY a very very Happy Birthday!! The kids surprised her today by having beautiful flowers delivered to her at work, and in true Gaggy fashion she cried when she got them.
I'm sure many of you are wondering how in the world my Mom got the name Gaggy. In honor of her BIG DAY I will explain. When we found out we were pregnant with Cooper my mom starting thinking of names that she wanted the grandkids to call her. She thought about it for months and talked and talked and talked about it. It was a HUGE deal for her. She wanted the PERFECT name for her grandbabies to call her. My grandmother kept telling her not to stress about the name because the kids would call her whatever they wanted to call her (Mamaw should know she goes by Mam, Mamaw, Ma, and Mimi). Dana and I laughed and joked with her calling her "Granny" because that is the only name she said absolutely NO to. As the months of pregancy went by Mom still had no name for herself. Finally, she announced the name "Grammy." Perfect, the grandkids would call her "Grammy." I don't think she could contain her excitement and announced to everyone she would go by Grammy. Finally, Cooper arrived and she called herself Grammy to him. Little did she know, Mamaw was right and Cooper was going to find his own name for her. When he finally started talking, he called her "Gaggy." We all thought it wouldn't last and when he could he would call her Grammy. Nope, we were all wrong. He is three and still calls her "Gaggy" with the ever so often "Gaga" thrown in the mix.
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAGGY! WE LOVE YOU!!
