Sometimes Breanne Hurts My Feelings A Little…

I’m sure she doesn’t really do it intentionally, but occasionally Breanne will say something that makes me a little sad. Take the following example, for instance. A little background–Breanne occasionally (ok, regularly…) likes to play this game she made up where she takes two objects, and switches their names–ie. she’ll call her Ariel doll Diego, and her Diego doll Ariel, and then ask us what their names are, and tell us we’re wrong if we answer what their names really are. So the other day we’re in the car, and she is referring to me as Dad, and Cory as mom. The conversation went roughly as follows:

Breanne: Hi Mom (talking to Cory)!
Me: No, I’m Mom.
Breanne: No, other mom!
Me: No, I’m the only mom you have.
Breanne: I wan’ two moms!

Ouch.
