It worked! I taught Caleb to call me mommy! In the last few days he will say it quietly as if he’s not sure of himself. He proudly says Da da da all day long, until today. Today he walked over to me and said Mamma and held up his arms! I was on the verge of tears, I swooped him up into my arms and gave him a big hug and lots of kisses! Ah, the joys of being a stay at home mom!
Despite our financial problems, I must say I am thrilled to think Dean may get some days to spend w/ Caleb as a result of his lay off. I think he and Caleb will both benefit greatly from more time together, even if it is going to put us in the poor house, at least we’ll be happy and together!
