Mama

Mama
One of Livie’s first words was “mama” or so I wanted to believe she was saying mama, it was probably more like mamamamama.  Anyway, for the longest time I have been trying to get her to call me mama.  She can say it and if someone asks her where mama is she points to me but she has actually never called me by it.  She can say “dada” and will call Nate dada all day long.  What she does call me is “da” and I am not happy about it.  One of the best reasons of being a mother is the first time your child calls you mama.  Well, my time came yesterday and let me tell you it was one of the best moments of my life and it actually brought tears to my eyes. 
Nate and I were just sitting on the couch after he got home from work, Livie can up to us and Nate pointed to me and asked Livie who I was and the most perfect words ever spoken came out of her little mouth ”mama”.   Later that night I was in the bathroom and Nate and Livie were in the kitchen and I could hear her calling for me “mama” “mama”. 
Besides the birth of my two girls, yesterday was the best day of my life, I officially feel like a mother.
