My grandmother, Edith, was a pretty remarkable woman, and I think most would agree, a bit of a ham. To our family, she was Nonnie. My mother would argue that her grandmother was the "Real" Nonnie, but there's a lot of fake news out there these days. I say Edith was as authentic as they get.
Anyway, my grandmother was the sole Edith in the family until our Edie arrived, and even now when I hear someone in our family talking about Edie, I spend a split second saying to myself very quickly "Nonnie? Wait, no. They're almost certainly talking the baby at this point." As fate would have it, she is also a bit of a ham.
SO! Now that my mother is now Nonnie, seeing Edie in Nonnie's arms makes my brain tingle in an extremely pleasant way. These particular pictures will be some of my favorites until the day I die.
