Mater-Mae

Our little Mater is a growler. Deep down in her throat she lets loose with a noise that definately does not fit the definition of "cute". It would be perfect on a halloween night hidden in some bushes near a quiet front door. Have a listen.

I've been encouraged by my better half to let you all know why we call her Mater. Her middle name is Mae. I have a ridiculous habit of playing the name game. Caitin will forever be Caitinator, and a natural following was to call our younger Mater. The two names play well together when singing silly songs about our two little girls. Well, it's stuck, and when people ask who Mater is, we usually reference the movie "Cars" and the character Tow-Mater. It's just simpler to explain. Also, very fitting is that Mater has a nice round head that occasionally becomes red when she is upset at us laying her down to sleep. She's our Mater-Mae.
