		<description>I have a theory on why kids rarely say Mom first.  I had cracker, banana, dad, cat, bye, 
bell and damn before I ever heard a mom.  My theory is that we are such an extension of 
the kids they don't realize we are a different person.  Probably not true at all, but it 
does make me feel better!!!!</description>
