She's grown big enough to enjoy tea parties her sisters have abandoned. (And, Titi, not-so-subtle brainwashing is successful. Millie now calls her "Piggly Wiggly" of her own accord.)
(In a state of non-motherhood, its very comfortable to take pot-shots at mothers!)
I'm glad to see that, by any name, it is being happily played with. People are fickle creatures and children are no exceptions, so one never really knows which things will be loved to death and which things will be accidentally forgotten in the passage of a short amount of time.
It's pleased me to see her bringing Piggly Wiggly to tea and under the covers and such, because if she didn't, I WOULD try to brainwash her into doing so! (Also, Piggly shares her dresses with all the baby dolls. I hope you don't mind, but she's very selfless.)
Do you remember how you told us all not to bring presents, and then when I did bring a present (aren't I evil) I told you that if you really meant it, than it wasn't a birthday present to Millie, it was a gift to all the Owen girls (you included) to share? Don't you wish now that you'd stuck to your guns and insisted we weren't supposed to bring brithday presents? Because then you could invite Piggly Wiggly to your teaparties!!
Brainwashing, is what mothers are for?!
