[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Son: Ebenezer IV (old family name; goes by Eben) 
Daughter 1: Jane (we call her Janie)* edit
Daughter 2: Elizabeth 
Daughter 3: Mary[/quote]

You are an Episcopalian family living in Somerset with traditional values, traditional names, and lots of family secrets. Eben is plagued by being the fourth. He always dreads the first day of school when his hideous, outdated, but dearly beloved family name is unfurled for all to hear in its screechy glory. He spends the rest of the week constantly pleading with kids and teachers to call him Eben and they do because he is a nice kid and they can tell. He's not a jock, he's not a geek, he's just an ordinary nice kid who stands up for the special needs kids. Jane is named after her maternal great grandmother, but fortunately she does not take after that austere side of the family with the ultra pale skin and limp hair. Janie is bouncy, cute, and outgoing. She can also be bossy, whiny, and spoiled, especially if she has skipped a meal which seems to be happening more frequently now that she is in middle school and suddenly very self-conscious of her flat chest. Elizabeth hates nicknames and refuses to answer to any of them. They have all been tried many times....Betsey, Lizzy, Libby, Bitsey, Liz, Beth, etc. She is the most serious and strong willed of the four children. She does everything with precision, focus, and a desire for perfection. She is not fun to play board games with because she is both a sore loser and a  sore winner. Mary is the typical baby of the family, adored and adoring, while snatching the limelight when ever she can get it. She shows real talent for dance and seems to light up on -stage. She wishes she had a nick name and begs her friends to give her a nickname, but none of them seem to stick.

As the mother of this busy brood, you spend a lot of time and energy coordinating schedules and outfits. In addition to your children's expectations, your husband also has some expectations. He expects a full meal on the table each night and he expects you to attend work events with him, cocktail parties, silent auctions, and insufferable dinner parties. You have a personal shopper at Nordstrom, regularly scheduled hair appts, waxing appts, and personal training sessions. You have a cleaning service, a preferred caterer, and you sneak out to Catholic Mass whenever possible since that's the way you were raised. You have an affinity for red wine, spam (but don't tell anyone about that), and Michael Buble.  [/quote]
