I took Lucy in to visit my
aunt at work a few days ago. Her coworker, an acquaintance of mine,
called her Claire. It made me smile. I am glad she remembers her. I
corrected her for Lucy’s sake though! And then 2 minutes later she
called her Claire again! She caught herself and said, “Lucy, Lucy,
Little Lucy!!” And then a few minutes later called her Claire once
again! This time she kept going and didn’t seem to notice.
Each time she slipped and called Lucy
Claire I couldn’t help but smile as I love hearing her name. Knowing
that her little life made an impression on someone warms my heart.
And that is what people do to
siblings, right? Mixing up their names is normal. I am glad Claire’s
name gets to be thrown into the mix too!
