Life With a Kid Who Has an Old Name and a Mother Who Has Alzheimer's

Talking the baby tonight while making dinner:

Mom: "So what's the baby's name?"
Jeff: "It's Dashiell. Dashiell Clark."
Mom: "Dashiell? Really? Are you joking?"
Jeff: "No, that's his name!"
Mom: *laughing* "That's just crazy! What kind of name is that?"
Jeff: "It's a nice name! We'll call him Dash!"
Mom: (nearly in tears from laughing already) "At least you didn't call him Larry!"

I love my mom.
