mom! mom! mom! mom! mom! mom! mom! mom!

I'm not going to lie, there are some days I wish to never hear, "Mom!" one.  more.  time.  Why is it that when you are the only other person in the room, or in the house, for that matter, the child must begin every sentence with, "Mom!"?  I try to not let him know that he's driving me fucking crazy with his overuse of the word.  When he says it I try to respond calmly with a, "yes?" or, "what's up?" or, "I heard you, can I help you?"  The other day I was really tired and he had refused to take a nap and I was about to lose my shit on him when he said it again.

"Mom!  Mom!! Mom!!"

"Yeah kiddo, what's up?"

"Mom!  I love you so much I can't stand it!"
