Ruh-Roh

I have that disease that it seems most parents have.  Despite the fact that I carried each of my children for 9 months, gave them their names, and have cared for them most of their waking moments since then, I can't remember those same names.  Sometimes I flat out call them the wrong name.  But most times, I catch myself in the middle of saying the wrong name, and the two names end up combined.  This is most evident with Adam.  I frequently begin with Robbie, and end with Adam.  He has become Radam.  I feel like I'm in a Scooby Doo movie.  I didn't realize how often I did it until Adam asked me one day, "Mom, why do you always call me Radam?"  When I explained, he looked at me with his big, brown 4-year old eyes, and said, "But my name is Adam."  So, I'm trying to work on it, so Adam doesn't grow up thinking his name is Radam.  Of course, I called Kelsey by her cousin's name this morning, so I'm not sure it's working!
