Ugh. A boy (actually, 6 boys) named Forever? Do people seriously hate their children?
We actually do have more than a few women named Snowy in our family. Snow is a family name, some of them took it to an extreme. Especially the one who married a man named Winter.

As most of y'all know, my mama's name was Dixie Lee. Sadly, the doctor heard it wrong, and put "Dickory" (as in, "Hickory, Dickory, Dock") on her original birth certificate. Thank heavens they caught it in time!

Had I been born a few years later, I would not be typing as honeychile, as my real name would have been Sunny, after the song. True story.
