"Jamin"

This is a word used regularly in our home. It is not Hebrew, Turkish or Arabic, or to be confused with jammin to the music. When our little baby was born we named him Benjamin. We knew there would be a chance people would call him Ben, which we didn't mind, but we weren't crazy about it. Both Jordan and Emily find themselves shortening his name to Ben to which there is always an echo coming from somewhere in the house "jamin". They say "Ben" and "jamin" always follows, from either Craig or I. It has become a pretty common occurance around here.

A Little Lesson:
The stats are not in yet, but I think we might be losing this battle.
