Ever since my children have been able to talk I've been "Momma" to them. 
Mr. even calls me "Momma." 
I always thought I'd be a "mommy" but I was a "Momma" to them. 
My daughter called me "Momma" first and then my son. 
They call Mr. "Dadda" - not daddy - "Dadda."
A sad thing happened over the weekend.
A very sad, sad thing.
Somehow I became... MOM.
How'd that happen?
Overnight - I stopped being Momma and started being "MOM."
I noticed my daughter was calling Mr.  "Dad" instead of Dadda first and then she turned to me and said, "Mom, gjhfgoseierytshgjlsfglsdhgooartaehsd." 
I didn't hear what she said to me after she called me, "Mom."
I think I might have yelled at her when she called me that.  I think I might have said, "I am NOT "MOM"  I am Momma!  Got it?!"
My baby girl is growing up and it's a very sad thing. 
Bug is still my bug-a-boo though... he still calls me Momma - but for how long? 
Will he start with the MOM soon too?
How could I have let this happen? 
Where did the last 8 1/2 years go? 
Where'd my sweet baby girl go? 
And who is this big girl calling me MOM? 
What's next?  Boooyyyysss?????
Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!
