Country Girls

**You must read this post with a country twang**

I can't deny that I have a southern accent. I always have and when I'm with my 'people' it comes out even harder. But as Isabella has been talking and saying her words proper, they come out more drawn out and so much more southern or country. It is so darn funny. In the beginning, my mother noticed that she called me "mawmaw" instead of momma. There was a bit of a 'w' sound in it. Cracks us up because we called our grandmother MeMaw, so I'm just MawMaw to Isabella. She says mawmaw when she's tired, otherwise she says momma or mommy. But there are many other things she says just like me; Brian and I have noticed it so much more these days since she talks non-stop. I'll start posting some of the words she says, it will be funny to keep record of them. Brian said it's completely my fault and I totally disregarded him, until I caught myself the other night on a roll, every single word that came out of my mouth was pronounced with a long drawn out southern draw and I could not stop myself. So, when you have a conversation with me in the future, please don't make fun of me, I'm completely aware of my country accent.
