But it has happened. The hardest thing is watching them grow up so fast. As they say The days are long, but the years are short. Ahhh so sad. Mine uses Mom very rarely. But it has happened.

And he used to call us "Honey", but now he just calls us "Hon". It does kind of make me sad. On the other hand, our daughter (almost 15) still calls us "Mommy" and "Daddy", which is interesting.
