Mom

Im pretty sure I just got my first 'mom'. Not the normal mama, or even the rare mommy...just mom. In the form of a sentance; ''Mom, I want my water.'' And from Piper none-the-less. Frankly i didnt like it. Although the relentless mama, mama, mama at times grates like the scratching of a crabs claws on the side of a pot of boiling water...i much prefer it over 'mom'. For that word makes me fear the inevitable. That my babies are no longer babies.

Yep, I'm with you on that. I've had the new title from Morgan for over a year and I'm just not sure I like the new name. Mommy and Mama suit me just fine.


Enjoy your time with your family. You guys mean more to us than you know!

Well, I can sympathize with you on this one. Tyson likes to call me Katie. I made sure to let him know I have worked very hard to be called "mom" and no one else gets the privledge. But, it is inevitable--they must grow up!

Well, there's always the bright side...at least she didn't call you "mother" :)
