I call that alphabet soup! Very difficult to read. I have figured out dh--darling husband....ds, darling son,;dd, darling daughter (or maybe it's dear)...Then there is dil and sil (daughter in law and father in law...And dgd (darling granddaughter) and dgs (darling or dear grandson.) And then you have to figure out all the abbreviations for quilt blocks--like dwr (double wedding ring). It can a person a headache. No wonder people can't spell nowadays!
