After nearly seven months of what can only be described as New Parent Boot Camp, my commanding officer has finally thrown me a bone: he called me by my name.
The moment I heard him utter those syllables, I ran to him so fast that I left a vapor trail. I then proceeded to bounce up and down in front of him while shrieking with joy and clapping my hands. Benjamin seemed to enjoy my ecstatic theatrics quite a bit. Indeed, no sooner than I had left the area did he call "Mama" again, sending me rushing back to his side for a repeat performance. Next, he'll be saying, "Dance, Mama, dance!"
And just in case you don't speak Chinese, in the video I'm asking Benjamin if he knows who I am.
