But my dad often called me Mariah when I was growing up, as in "they called the wind Mariah" and I love that, too. Leli is lovely! And so is Leslie!Maria K. https://www.blogger.com/profile/09788845984653023060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654849187830306697.post-69363764997725261202015-06-11T07:49:02.282-06:002015-06-11T07:49:02.282-06:00Yes, very!

But then my parents got divorced and when I was four or so I went to live with my dad and his girlfriend -who became the most wonderful mom to me-and somewhere along the line nicknamed me Shelley. I always think that renaming me was her way of claiming me as her daughter. Cool, huh?Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03985546313521890273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654849187830306697.post-47224020540040440062015-06-04T08:40:58.136-06:002015-06-04T08:40:58.136-06:00You might want to have that looked at.
