When people call our house, we can tell if they know me or not - if they can pronounce my name.How does it sound in your head (assuming you don't know me)?
Jolanthe.
Over the years, I've been called such a variety of things...some comically funny. Today, McKenna went and got the mail and I had her practice reading the address labels to see who each piece was for.
Rick (check).
Ernest (my dad who is living with us - check).
Jolanthe.....umm...Mom? What does this say?
She knows my name, but forgot that the way she usually spells it is M-O-M.
For the record, my name is "technically" said Yo-lon-ta (I'd put one of those smiley face circles above the "o" in my name, but can't figure out how to do it).
Can you say it?
