Mama

For a long time Aubrey has called me Mommy. And once in a while, Mom. Recently, she's added Mama into the mix and I have to say it completely melts me each and everytime she uses that particular pronoun. I'm not sure what it is about mama that is so melting to me, but I want to scoop her up and never let her go every time she utters those two syllables.

"I want to help make pancakes, Mama"

"Fingers sticky, Mama"
