February 15, 2007 - One for the baby book!

Just had to put this one down on paper because it really cracked me up. I know from past experience with Gabrielle and also, from talking with friends--- that it is quite normal for younger children to express quite an interest in the nursing process. We have just told them all that Sam eats "mama's milk". Allison, in particular, is always reminding me of this fact, whenever I am feeding Sam. So, I am sitting in the living room doing just that, and Allison walks into the room. She has a Little People dragon in one hand and a Little People horse in the other, she has each of them held up to her shirt and starts telling me "milk, milk". I just had to laugh. You'd think she would at least be trying to feed one of her baby dolls, but instead my daughter nurses her dragon and her horse.
