Name Calling

We have a big lovable dog named Tommy, sometimes known as Thomas when necessary. Word to the wise: If you're a parent that gets your name called 100 times a day, DON'T name your dog something that rhymes with your name. If I answer, "What?!" I often hear in response, "I was talkin' to Tommy!" If I ignore it because I thought they were calling the dog, I get: "Mommy, didn't you hear me calling you???"

On the flip side, it is kind of cute when Eli calls me Mhomas.
