Feminine Side

Well, I'm now a few days behind on posting this (see my last post for further details LOL), but I still had to share. I was sooooo happy! I usually don't get more than a few minutes without a Meagan-shadow during the day - especially when the boys have their own game going and she's being excluded. Well, I've been trying to encourage her to play independently while I do housework, but usually she's just not interested. Well, I was folding clothes in our room, and she wandered out into the hallway. A few minutes had passed, and I realized I hadn't seen her for a while. So, I peeked around the corner in the hallway - no Meagan. I looked in the boys' room - not there. Then I checked in her room, and there she was sitting in her closet playing baby dolls! Of all things - BABIES! She was undressing, 'giving tubbies,' feeding, and rocking them. She tucked them into the crib once, but decided it was too crowded for both of her babies. So she emptied out her blanket drawer and made up a bed for them on her floor. Each baby got a pillow, and she sat down and read them a book for bedtime. How cute is she!?! She's still rough and tumble, and may never be the girliest girl in the bunch (which is more than fine with me), but my daughter has finally found a glimpse of her feminine side!
