Once when my sisters and I were little (me, 9, one sis 8 and the other 4), our granny, whom we called Nanny, was visiting. Our father was leaving and phoned home before leaving town, heading for Miami. When my granny told us where he was going, my baby sister said, why is he going to my nanny's ami?
