My given name is Catherine... Once upon a time a 4-year-old girl was working the gate for her grandfather and his crew as they culled cattle for shipping... One of the cowboys asked Grandpa why I was there and "being a nuisance"... Grandpa said ..."She's earning her keep just the same as you. She might be a little bit but she's got a lot of try"... from then until I had my first son, I was called "Lilbit"... after having my son, the "Lil" was dropped...and now it's just "Bit"
