I am new to the site and was reading some other questions. I feel silly having to ask, but what do some of these abbreviations mean??

DD
DS
DH

I am figuring daugther, son, husband...but I can't figure out what the "D" stands for. I know I am going to feel really stupid after someone tells me! :)

The first D is usually for Dear or Darling. Although sometimes I imagine it can also stand for something else! :)

Thank you so much for asking. I kinda guessed what it was but to know for sure now is much better. And remember...the only stupid question, is the question that isn't asked.

I hereby absolve you of any feelings of stupidity.
Stupid is when a person doesn't ask.

The D stands for Dear or Darling. Don't feel silly, it took me a while to figure it out too.
