It was Tuesday morning.... I was getting the boys up and ready to head over to Grammie's house as it was a work day for me. I gave Ryan a good morning head nuzzle and picked up Evan to do the same. As I was laying Evan down on the changing table, I made a comment "Awwww.... how's it going big man?" Very quickly Ryan replied..."Mom! That is NOT right!" For a second I was a bit confused, and my brain was scrambling to remember what I said or done that was incorrect. Ryan again piped up and said "I'M big man.... he's little man!!" Evidently, without really realizing it, I had been calling Ryan "big man" and Evan "little man" with some consistency. I apologized to Ryan and started using the "correct" terminology.
This whole episode reminded me of a favorite Bill Cosby stand-up routine about him and his brother Russell. Ahhhh..... childhood memories!!

Give both "big-man" and "little man" a big hug from the both of us.
