The world of “Pretend” is upon us. Multiple times a day, Lydia “pretends” something. It’s fun to watch her imagination explode down different paths, and even more fun to see when a mature grasp on reality comes out.
Today, she said, “Pretend I’m a mommy.”
“Ok,” I said. “Who is your baby?”
She told me I was, so I pretended to cry.
She immediately said, “Ok, I’m not Mommy anymore. You’re Mommy again.”
Smart girl. Who wants to deal with a wailing baby? Life lesson learned today: When the going gets tough (aka: the baby starts crying), pass the responsibility off to someone else!

Hee Hee Cameron does the exact thing! Sometimes they are such twinners.
She really is one smart cookie! I think that’s what Grandmas do too! We have the best of both worlds!
weird, because savannah loves a screaming baby…she makes her fake baby cry alot. i think she learned it from her younger brother!
