Just curious...how did you come up with your board name?

The school my children attend is St. Patrick School. When my oldest was in the early grades, I practically lived there between volunteering there and working there. But I loved the fact that we were so blessed (and still are) to have 3 kids there that Stpatmom just seems to fit. Before I know it I'll have to change it because my oldest only has one more year before high school=(

Cj is what my DM always calls me and she is the only one that calls me that. It stands for Carrie Jean, the O is for Orbeck my last name. Before I had kids of my own I always had friends kids who called me momma Carrie. So that is how I came up with cjomomma, plus it is easy for me to remember.

I was named after an aunt and to keep us separate my nick name growing up was Nan or Nanny. I was only known by my real name in school. When my husband met my parents, he thought I had a sister because he couldn't figure out who Nan was. I always disliked my given name. Any way...my first DGS was born last September and he has his maternal grandma who lives in the same city with them. My dad said that my DGS should call me Gramma Nan to differentiate me from the other grandma. I loved the idea and when I needed to come up with a board name, it was the perfect choice. I love being called Nan.

Mine is named from the smell of the ocean, which I always love to smell. When we travel to the coast I have the window down and am always so excited when I get that first sniff of the sea air...so I go to the Sea to breathe. I grew up on the coast of VA, FL, SC then married a sailor so I spent 20 years meeting ships and planes. My Dad was in the Navy for 28 years so there was always the sea to smell.
