SLP? No, AAE


We use a lot of nicknames and acronyms in our family. Rahel, aka Cooper, had the original nickname, but everyone has one or more. Ava is Aviator (AhVeeAayTor) or just simply Ator (rhymes with gator). Clara is Pinchie Pie, Miriam is Bugs, John is Carter, and so on. We use a lot of acroynms too -- time to do your HW (homework), you're in BTT (big time trouble), sometimes I call the kids SLPs (stupid looking poundables).

Yesterday morning I asked Ava, "Are you an SLP?" and she said "No, I'm AAE - Awesome and Intelligent".

I vote for the awesome and intelligent. Let's change the other stuff.
