Maggie has decided she wants to be a princess when she grows up. This is fairly typical I believe. It either stems from assorted Disney movies we've watched (some over and over again, so much so that Mags does the sound effects along with the movie); or from a friend at school who dresses in tutus and garlands and says he wants to be a princess when he grows up too. We sure like it better than the last thing she picked up at school: the months of cat obsession.
Maggie is more grown up every day. She's now getting dressed by herself, even socks, which I consider to be tricky items of clothing. At school she pours her own milk and goes to the bathroom without help. She likes having jobs at home like throwing away diapers, setting the table, dumping measuring cups in the bowl for recipes, and feeding Eliza. We're still working on things like getting out of the bath civilly, not playing with food at the table, and stopping when told to do so. She's like a little person, this little girl.
