Besides a pain in the @$$ (and a hypocrondriac), I call mine Ma.

M is for the million things she gave me,
O means only that she's growing old,
T is for the tears she shed to save me,
H is for her heart of purest gold;
E is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
R means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.

My siblings do that all the time-"Your mother" and I keep reminding them that she is their mother, too. Sometimes I guess they forget who they are talking to because once in a while they will say, "My mother" and after a few seconds they will say, "Oh yeah, your mother also." lol

We do the same thing.  ;D 

Then we argue over who had her first or last.  "She's your mother, you had her first!" :P

Since age 10, I've always been calling my mom "Mom." Before that, I switched between "Mommy" and "Mom" before settling on the latter.

I called my mother "Mommy" or "Ma".  When I called her on the phone I would always say "Hi'ya Ma".  I sounded just like Rhoda!!

HA! Sounds like my mom, except that she isn't going through menopause yet...she's a natural b*tch. :P

I usually call her by her given name. It stems from when we worked together and I couldn't very well go around calling her "mom" at work! :)
