I've Been Edited

I am an English teacher. I edit and grade LOTS of papers. I write a lot, and I read a lot.
I feel it's only fair to report that I've been edited by...
my husband.
He pointed out a repetitive error on this blog.
That's right a REPETITIVE ERROR.
Yes, that was an uncomfortable conversation.
It is in regard to Bright's grandmas; that lucky little stinker has quite a few of them.
I've been writing Oma, but that's not really right. It's not Oma as in the Dutch or German tradition. He calls his grandmas Ah-ma. It's his term, but we're going with it. Jon felt that I should write it differently, and I do agree.
I stand corrected.
So what do you think?
Amma. Ahma. Ama. Aamma.
