I’m a young mom with a pre-teen son and he’s called me “mommy” up until he was about 10 and a half. Since then he’s been calling me “Ma” which I find pretty cute. Especially when he extends it to “Maaa” when yelling from another room. Maybe it’s a southern thing lol. Just curious about what y’all call your moms?
“Ma!”
Also, it has to be shouted. As a kid—coming into the house from who-knows-what adventure where I destroyed an item of clothing—again. Or as an adult trying to reach her over the sound of Fox News with the volume up way too loud.
This is the way.
