Hearing a department store clerk address me as "Ma'am," four-year-
old Jennifer asked what that meant.
"Ma'am is short for madam," I replied. "It's a polite way to
address a woman."
Jennifer asked what name Daddy would be called.
"Sir," I answered.
"Sir ..." she thought for a moment, "that must be short for
servant!"
