Mini Me

Susie desperately wants to be a “mommy.”  She constantly asks me what I’m wearing (down to my color underwear and whether or not I’m wearing socks) in order to determine what she will wear.  She has taken to carrying a purse around, pulling out a Candyland card in lieu of a library card at the library, trying to discipline her siblings, even arranging the sheets in her bed to mimic mine.  If you ask her what she wants to be when she grows up, she answers “a mommy” without hesitation.  She’s always been a very careful observer of others’ habits,  especially adults.  It’s quite endearing to watch her mimic me, and it keeps me on my best behavior! 

One of these days she’s going to start raiding my closet for real (although I hope at that time she doesn’t put her pants on backwards!).
