Stuff I call Charis

A funny yet spontaneous thought crossed my mind a few days ago.. Hey, why not summarize all the affectionate names that I created for Charis so that one day when she's old enough to read it, she can have a good laugh about it?

Ok, i'll do just that!

Actually I think I am pretty good at giving names, and of course, nothing crude, just clean fun :) Used to give my sister, my dad and dear lots of nicknames which were inspired by different occasions and stuff I see. It's really fun :)

Stuff I call Charis on a daily basis, and each has to be uttered with a unique tone and pitch :-

1. Charis girl-girl

2. Girl-girl Charis

3. Darling girl-girl

4. Ling-Dar (reverse order of darling.. Hee)

5. Dar-Ling-Dar

6. Ling-Dar-Ling

7. Dar-Dar-Dar !! (you need to exclaim for this!)

8. Ling-Dar-Dar !!!! (you need to exclaim twice the intensity for this.. ha ha)

9. Daily "poem" that I talk to her, "Darling girl-girl, girl-girl Darling, Darling girl-girl, girl-girl girl-girl girl!!!"

10. I'll kiss and whisper this in her ear everyday, "Mummy love you, Daddy love you, Jesus loves you, everybody loves you!"

11. I'll ask her everyday, "How are you my darling? Are you a happy darling?"

Just a few days ago, when Charis was crying while I was tucking her to bed, I suddenly remembered the tune of "London Bridge Is Falling Down" and I changed the lyrics.. Hee hee

"God is watching over you, over you, over you
God is watching over you, my Charis girl.

Jesus Christ is holding you, holding you, holding you
Jesus Christ is holding you, my Charis girl.

Holy Spirit's touching you, touching you, touching you
Holy Spirit's touching you, my Charis girl."

Hope this will form part of your childhood memory, darling. May it be fun, memorable and heartwarming.

Daddy and mummy love you!!!
