Congrats, dear Elizabeth!
A great word, but so easy...
PA . for daddy
-bulous , short for fabulous
So: It �s one of the praises you receive from your daddy... for the tiny things, not for the great achievements, just because he loves you!

PABULOUS
This was originally a warning call used by families of cattle breeders.
At certain times of the year the bulls are rather active and inclined to escape from their enclosures, thus endangering family members. On the occasion of a father being endangered by a bull, a son calls loudly, � Pa bull loose! �
Over the years the form of this word has changed to the word we see today �Pabulous �.
So if you see an elderly gentleman in danger (from any cause) you may call �Pabulous! � and everyone will know exactly what the situation is. |

A football game in Caracas, Venezuela
where every player is called Pablo.
Spectator 1: "phew! Just made it, any score yet?"
Spectator 2: "No, but you �ve missed a Pabulous game." |

My definition also has an alcoholic inclination.. pabulous is an anagram of A pub soul
Or, it could be a dance move because it �s also an anagram of usual bop
