Why the Davenport School?

As a child, we loved to laugh at my grandmother's funny names for things. Like the way she called a our basement a "cellar" and the refrigerator an "icebox", or how she would refer to our couch as a "chesterfield" or "davenport." When we tried to come up with a clever name for our home school, the Davenport school seemed a fitting choice for a place where you can get your education while still in your pajamas!

I love this. Are you talking about Baba or Grandma? Will you be embarrassed having a comment on your blog from your father? Will you delete it before any of your friends see it?
