I Call You "Mother"

I used to be Mama. Then Mommy. I loved both equally. It seems we have entered a new phase.


Daniel has been watching Peter Pan and in the movie the children, especially Wendy, talk of their 'Mother'.


About a week ago I picked Daniel up after work and he ran to me saying "Mother". I was surprised, but nothing connected.


Then it continued. Daniel now constantly calls me Mother. I asked him why last night, and he said it's because I'm a mother like Wendy in Peter Pan and because I sing and read to him like she does (the part where she talks about their Mother and then sings and reads to the lost boys).


And that was it...I'm hooked - I now LOVE being called "Mother"!!

Love it! Don't you just love sweet little boys? They sure love their mamas (or Mother, in this case!).
