Thinking that maybe, just maybe, she may choose to acknowledge Rebecca's existence, I agreed.
Of course it was wishful thinking. She opted to drag her dingy old Baby Shell instead. You know, the doll that came from Wal-Mart a kajillion years ago.
I'm kind of glad she picked Baby Shell. If she hadn't, I might not have gotten to chuckle every time I looked around and saw this:
And now I remember why I always tell the kid "No" when she asks to take toys with her places. She NEVER carries them. Heh.
