"Hey, Peanut," Grandpa said to Jane. "Come see your grandpa."
Jane strolled over to her grandpa. Grandpa swept her up into a big hug. Jane giggled. She liked the feel of Grandpa's beard as he nuzzled her cheek.
Ever since she could remember, Grandpa had called Jane "Peanut." It was her special name. She was the only one Grandpa called by that name. Even though she was getting older, she still enjoyed it.
"Do you know what this month is, Peanut?"
"Yes, Grandpa. It's March!"
"Yes, Jane," Grandpa answered with a chuckle. "But it's also National Peanut Month. So it must be a special month for you!"
"Yes, Grandpa," Jane replied with her own giggle.
"I'm going to take you to a peanut farm, Jane. Then you can learn more about peanuts."
"Sounds like fun!" Jane answered. "When are we going?"
