A rose by any other name

In recent months, Janie's use of language has exploded and in turn, she has renamed several of our local hot spots.

- Target is now known as The Circle Store because of the Target logos on every conceivable surface.

- We refer to Chuck E Cheese as Purple Mouse, because, well, he's a mouse and he's purple. (I think he may actually be a rat. Which is gross. So I'm not going to correct her on that one.)

- Michael's is referred to as The Flower Store because of all the colorful fake flowers right inside the front door.

- Party America and Party City are collectively known as The Sticker Store because that's the only reason we go there.

- And perhaps, most appropriately, Toys R Us has been renamed Toys For Us.

So spoiled, lucky girl! Does this mean that I've been renamed Micky Mouse?
