Rose!

Several times a day she will tell me that the doctor hurt me and "you no pick up me."  I tell her I am ok now but she is a big girl and has to climb on my lap herself.  And I need her help because she is growing up!  She will nod her head.  It is a story she needs to hear right now, I guess.  Here she is with her dolly.  "Dowwy, she look like me! See a hairbow!"  That's so cute that children start to prefer little dolls and things that look like them from such a young age.  The blonde doll doesn't seem to be her fave any more.  From the preschool, I hear that she is "very social" and can now say her real full name properly like a big kid and give her age.
