Oh yeah, and that when I was a kid I thought everything on my left side represented "bad" and my right side was "good" so everything I did that I wanted to go well I had to initiate with my right hand...who knows what I was thinking with that one! <BR/><BR/>And hey - you still love me, even if I am just a smidge off of center!

My oldest is 9 and is so enamoured of horses that rarely does a conversation go by without comment.<BR/><BR/>L also runs like a horse, is "fregnant" like a horse (no stuffeds at church, tho), plays horses at school and gets all her friends -even the boys- involved, she DRAWS horses a LOT. <BR/><BR/>She has taught all three other kids in the family to do the same. It will not end in the near future. <BR/><BR/>meg m - my kids also imitated the BFing and I thought it was very cute. We did have the "not in public for indiscreet children" talk very early on.The Estrogen Fileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02995416882864545267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-79112860449500592652007-02-08T13:13:00.000-05:002007-02-08T13:13:00.000-05:00i definitely used to pretend that i was pregnant b...i definitely used to pretend that i was pregnant by shoving stuffed animals down my pants. and see? i turned out normal! *wink*<BR/>~KimmyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-15483076440724389362007-02-07T19:36:00.000-05:002007-02-07T19:36:00.000-05:00Ivy used to randomly 'breastfeed' her baby dolls w...Ivy used to randomly 'breastfeed' her baby dolls when Gabe was a baby. It didn't matter where we were...at the grocery store, at the mall, at work (i worked in daycare so i could take her with me)...she would lift up her shirt and pull her baby doll to her as though she were feeding it.<br />Your girl is completely normal...they just mimic what they THINK is going on. I learned that the bigger deal I made out of it the more she wanted to know WHY she shouldn't do it. I certainly didn't want her to think breastfeeding was bad, just as I'm sure you don't want yours to think horses having babies is BAD. I wouldn't make a big deal out of it and just make sure she understands that stuffing objects into your pants for church is just as objectionable as standing up in the pew and doing a jig in the middle of Mass...it's just kind of frowned upon ;)<br />I will admit, though, that it gave me a good giggle ;)Meg M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00293101794797178934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33252138.post-40486673568551809792007-02-07T12:53:00.000-05:002007-02-07T12:53:00.000-05:00that is such a cute story...
