Obama

As many of you know, Bennett calls his Grandmother (my Mom) "Obama." Whenever I referred to her as "Grandma" he kept saying "Bama" and in the spirit of this election year, I just added an "O" in front of the "Bama." I don't know, I guess I thought it would be cute to have him yell out OBAMA!OBAMA! when we go to Super Walmart near my Mom's house.





But now the confusion starts. Bennett and I were watching Michelle Obama give her speech this evening during the Convention. At the end of her speech, everyone was clapping and I pointed to the TV and told Bennett "That's Michelle Obama."

Huh?

"No das not Obama, Mommy."

"Yes, Bennett - that is Michelle Obama."

"Where's Grandpa?"

"No, not Grandma. Not that Obama. Michelle Obama."

"NO! No Obama, Mommy! Obama in da telephone!"


Oh boy. Guess I should have insisted on Bennett calling her Grandma.
