Spelling & Motherhood

It used to be I could tell which boy was calling for me based on whether they said Mom or Mama. Bayley made the switch during preschool, but Hayden has now made the change. It's sad, to stop being Mama. So during a cuddle I asked Hayden why he stopped calling me Mama...

Because I can't spell Mama in my journal at school.

That explains it - Mom is easier to spell. OK then. I showed him how to spell Mama...but clever chap that he is, he's still calling me Mom unless he wants something. Then I'm Mama again.
