Mommy Dearest
- Boone: Mama.
- Me: She had to leave for work. What do you need?
- Boone: Mama.
- Me: She'll be back later. What do you want? You want a snack?
- Boone: Mama!
- Wyatt: I think he's being pretty clear.
- Me: I know, but I'm a perfectly capable parent. And I'm right here.
- Boone: Mama!
- Wyatt: But, you're not mama.
- Me: I feed you, clothe you, put you down for your nap, play with you. What does she do that I don't do?
- Wyatt: Be awesome.
- Boone: MAMA!
- Me: She's gone, Boone. Do you want a hug? I can hug.
- Wyatt: Not like mama.
- Me: Just like mama.
- Wyatt: Nope.
- Boone: MAMA!
- Me: How is her hug different than mine?
- Wyatt: It's awesome.
- Me: Here, Boone. I'll give you a hug to make you feel better.
- Boone: WAAAAAAAH! MAMA! MAMA! MAMA! MAMA!
- Wyatt: Way to go, smart guy. He'll be freaking out for a while now.
- Me: Fine. I'll let him have his fit. Is there anything you need?
- Wyatt: Mama.
