Shasta Says

Here's a fun fact. Shasta refuses to say Mom. She used to and now all she says is Dad.

I took her shopping on Saturday and as I carried her through the store I kept saying "Momma" to get her to repeat after me. Here's how our conversation went.

"Momma."
"Dad."
"Mom."
"Dad."

Over and over throughout the store. Then finally I whispered,

"Mom."

And she whispered back,

"Dad."

She's so clever! I used to try to teach her that I'm "Momma" and Nick's "Not the Momma", and now that all she says is Dad, Nick is teaching her that he's "Dad" and I'm "Not the Dad". Let's hope that one doesn't stick!
