Worst part is, I've heard I did the same thing at his age...

"Hello, Mom."

"Hello, Xan."

"Don't call me Xan! My name is Xan-DER!"

"Well, don't call me Mom! My name is Mom-MY."

"No, it's not."

"Why not?"

"Grown-ups don't call their mommies, Mommy. They call them Mom.  And I'm FOUR now.  So I call you Mom."


My head is spinning.....

  1. Yup! You gave me one year of Mommy. It's been Mom or Jan ever since! And now it's Bubby! HAHAHAHA
    But I always knew you loved me no matter what you called me. And I love/d you right back.
    Mommy/Mom/Jan/Hey You/Please Stay in the car...You're Embarrassing Me/Bubby

    1. Xander was moved from the endearment "Xanderbug" to straightaway XANDER. Question: Is he formally listed in school and such as ALEXANDER, and will he finally be using his unabbreviated name?

    2. Aww, thanks Mom. Tis true.

      And Savta, yep, on all paperwork he's Alexander. But no matter... to us he's Xander, and to himself too. I don't know when and if he'll move over - it doesn't really matter to me!
