ma'am....

i can honestly begin this post by saying that i have always felt quite young....not only because i went about 85% of my life thus far being told i looked too young....but because i felt young too! after all, i am only twenty-five right? twenty-five....and today as i awaited my mouthwatering in 'n out burger with my tiny little one curled up in the back seat of my car, i was feeling pretty good....the sun was beating down, the stereo was blasting my favorite tunes and i was actually out of the house....i was feeling pretty good until i got up to that first window to pay for that mouthwatering burger and the guy at the window said "you have a good day ma'am"....what!? ma'am? what does that even mean? i have never been called ma'am....well today was a first for mommy....so many firsts have been for camden lately....and here is one just for me and it has to be "ma'am"....so there i was, in shock and disbelief because the guy at the counter (who was probably in his twenties himself) was politely calling me ma'am....and then i looked at that beautiful ring on my finger and glanced backwards at that cute little man of mine and thought....i guess ma'am isn't so bad after all.

camden has been holding up his head like a champ lately....and even gets his chest up at times too! and is trying ever so hard to pull those little knees up underneath himself...

  1. Haha, I've been called ma'am SO many times! Its ridiculous! :)

    And you are young...
    but to all those young workers (who are like 16-21) out there, I guess we're becoming the ma'ams of the world!

  2. This is why I will teach my boys to call all females "Miss." Even if they're 92.

  3. HAHA! I wanted to look at the lady in Macys that called me "mam" the first time and say "I'm pretty sure you're older than me..." I didn't do it and once I took a breather I wasn't so mad and realized she was probably just trying to be nice... I had to do the same thing when I heard someone refer to me as a "LADY"...
