Not you, the other mother

We've been trying to potty train Ander for the last year or so.  He's a stubborn one.  He finally keeps his diaper dry, but I have to make him go poo (otherwise he holds it in).  So sometimes we have him just sit on the potty until he goes, which can last up to 20 minutes sometimes.  When he's finished he always calls me to come help him, but sometimes lately Chris will go instead of me (because my feet aren't quite up to walking all that much yet).  So today Ander has been calling me Julie instead of mom and I asked him why he calls me Julie and not mom.  He responded:  "Because Dad thinks his name is Mom".  Tren, Mason and I were cracking up laughing.  I don't know that Chris thought it was too funny though.
