[blparent] Question of Interest

[Nikki Fugett-Dobens]

Hi.  I think Mackenzie is close to her age, she will be 3 in July. 
Sometimes, she tells me to, "hold her like a baby." Sometimes, she even says 
she is a baby.  So I have had this happen several times as well.  Most of 
the time, she likes being called a big girl, but she has her moments.

Hi.  I'm not too worried about it, but I'm wondering if any of your toddlers 
ever started referring to themselves as "the baby."  Most of the time, 
Sarah, who is three, is very proud of the fact that she's a big girl.  But 
then sometimes in the next breath, she'll start referring to herself as "the 
baby."  She'll want to sit in her high chair again, which we just haven't 
gotten around to finding a new home for.  But mostly it's just referring to 
herself as "the baby"--as in "The baby wants milk."
