My 4 year old called me "mama" for the first time at the park in Boise and I had to sit down

I placed my daughter in an open adoption at birth and we've done visits since she was a baby, but for 4 years she called me by my first name. Last Saturday at Ann Morrison Park she ran up holding a dandelion and just said "mama, look" like it was nothing. I don't know if that's a good thing or if I'm setting myself up to get hurt, has anyone else had a kid switch up what they call you?
