Um... yeah. Phew!

Malia was pushing me away with her feet when I sat too close to them on the couch. I said,  "Be nicer to your mother."

She replied, "You're not my mother."

My heart almost stopped. I managed to squeak out, "What?"

Laughing and throwing her whole self at me-  "You're my MAMA!!!!"


Thank God b/c I am not ready for the day she'll say the first thing and mean it...  (hopefully never?)

Omg... my heart stopped too! Don't scare me like that!!! It is clear how much your girl loves you, though... : )

The moment will come. It is like braxton hix. Painful little moments that lead to the real painful moment.

Glad you are MAMA!!!! :) TT has a story about birth mommy, but it doesn't really register yet.

She will never say it- you ARE her Mother- so what if you did not give birth to her- you love that child more then anyone ever could. Hold you head high and love being her Mama!
