NBRC ~ READ YOUR NAME CHALLENGE ~

Completed: 30/36 updated 07/14/12

When I was a kid I thought my middle name was just an initial. I wanted a full middle name. Actually, I wanted my mother’s middle name (Alice), which I though was very pretty. So, my father (a very gentle man, with a wonderful sense of humor), tacked on a few names for me, much to my delight. He would call me by them, progressively, when I was “treading on thin ice�� (my mother’s expression) and getting close to a getting into trouble. It was a delightful way of letting me know how close I had reached a boundary by how many of the names he used. When he used all of them right away, I really paid attention!
