One of the greatest pleasures for me is the sound of Evelyn calling out my name, "Mommy".
Since learning my name, Evelyn has used the term "Mommy". I love it. On the rare occasion that Evelyn has said, "Mom", I have subtly corrected her back to "Mommy". There is just something about hearing the innocent and young use of the term "Mommy" that melts my heart.
As most children mature, somewhere along the line, they transfer to the term "Mom". I am not looking forward to that transition and I plan to hold on to her use of "Mommy" for as long as I can. Please excuse Evelyn if you hear her call me "Mommy" at the age of 21! It will be my fault. I just love the sound of "Mommy."

You are totally right! Owen is only saying "Mama" but it's good enough. I love the new header picture with Evelyn!
