I love this discussion. I'm Mimi because when Abigail was little she called me Moma and she called her mom, Moma, so we never could tell which one of us she was talking to. We tried and tried to get her to call me grandma, but she just never would. Then we began to realize maybe she couldn't SAY grandma. So, one day Brooke told her to call me Mimi and she immediately began to call me that, so I think it really was that she couldn't say, grandma. Gary is Papaw and the other grandparents (whom they don't see very often) are Nana and grandpa.
When my mom came to live with me, then we had a great mimi and for some reason Abigail started calling me regular mimi. Sometimes Abi would just call me "regular" without the mimi at the end. She doesn't anymore but she did for a while. Her calling me regular mimi just cracks up my nieces, they think that is so funny so sometimes they call me regular!!!
