GROGAN

My dear, dear grandmother of 86 has coined Logan's first nickname. If you remember early in the spring one of my baby showers was held at her house. Some people even gave me things that had Logan embroidered on it. I was speaking to my grandmother while I was still in the hospital and she told me how she just can't wait to see the baby and had been telling all her friends about him. She kept saying how unique his name was and how all her friends wanted to know where it came from (was it a family name). She said his name a few times and I thought she was pronouncing it weird. I thought maybe I had just misheard. As I was getting off the phone she told me to give Grogan a kiss for her. Wait a second. Did she say Grogan? The day we came home from the hospital these were delivered:


Yes, she thought his name was Grogan!! Her hearing isn't well so when I told her the name last spring she couldn't understand it and I had my cousin tell her in person. Then the shower was at her house, etc. I thought she had gotten it down. Anyways, I still couldn't tell her it was wrong over the phone because she couldn't hear the difference! I called her the next day and she said she had been corrected by a family member and was so embarrassed. She told me that she had told all her friends the wrong name. Ha ha, that's why they all thought it was so unique! My grandmother than said "I liked Grogan, but I like Logan a lot better!" She even wrote him an apology letter for getting his name wrong. Brian and I call Logan by his nickname Grogan constantly. How special to get his first nickname from such a wonderful lady!
