Miss Elizabeth

My littlest one, aged three and a half, has always been known as Lizzy (Lou Lou by me sometimes and Poopie by her Daddy). She announced last week that she is no longer to be called Lizzy but Elizabeth, for that is her name. When she went into pre school she told them this. They have their names printed and stuck on a board for them to identify and pick out so she said she would like that changed please.

Her best friend is a little boy called Joel (whose father looks like James Blunt but we won't hold that against him!). When he went home from pre school he told his Mummy that, 'we musn't call Lizzy 'Lizzy' any more Mummy, we have to call her Elizabeth', 'Oh is that right?' his Mummy said, 'Yes', replied Joel, 'and I want to be called John'!

Aren't little ones precious?
