As Robert has grown, he has evolved from calling James "Da Da" to "Daddy." And I was "MaMa" first, then exclusively "mommy," and then he moved to using either Momma or Mommy.... In one of his cuter moments on Friday night, Robert called out, "Hey, my Daddy James! Come here!"
But in the last week or so, two new words have creeped into Robert's vocabulary: Mom and Dad. I almost cried the first time Robert asked, "Where's my Dad?" And when he called me "Mom," I really did tear up!
Right now, Daddy and Mommy/Momma are the predominant names used, but Robert will suddenly become a "grown up" and call us Mom or Dad about once or twice a day. I am holding on to every little "Mommy" for as long as I can! Growing up is hard.... especially on Mommy!
