Name Change

Ever since Monday after Arden slept in her bed she started calling me Mom. No more Mommy or Mama. I guess she's all grown up at the age of two.

Oh, I remember when I went from Mommy to Mom, kind of a sad day...and it happened at age 2 which was so much younger than I expected. But eventually they settled on Mama and only use Mom when I'm in trouble. :)

Lisa - I know that is tough for you. My kids are 9 and 6 now and sometimes it is mom sometimes it is mommy and occasionally Mama. But just Mom for the most part.

I also have a tough time when my nieces and nephews start calling me Aunt Marie - strange I know but for most of my life I have be Re or Re-Re. When we were kids my cousins started the Re-Re and then as my nieces and nephews started to be able to speak I was back to Re-Re. I am even happy with Aunt Re - but Aunt Marie just means they are all growing up.

My sister Colleen will tell you if Amber or Alex ever call me Marie I will cry!!! Colleen has 7 nieces and nephews (2 of them are mine) and all of them call her Colly - except for my son who calls her Aunt Colleen - and when he says it she just stops for a minute like - "Joseph, are you talking to me???"
