in the car on the way to the milk drop we are having a "i spy an american flag" race. he wins and chants "God helped me win the race, God helped me win the race!"
then later- "mommy? what was your name before you were a mommy and had kids?"
I specifically remember asking my mom what her name was, and then thinking, huh? Sheryll? Why do they call you that? as though I had never heard anyone utter that word! Just shocking!!
Funny I think, how the name Mommy just seems to make all the sense in the world to a child.
Baffeling really when we discover that it is only a name special to a few in the parent/kid relationship.
