Welcome to the family...

Last Friday, we welcomed a new addition to the family...baby Sam, Sammy, Samantha! Molly received a new baby doll for her birthday. She loves her, and has promptly put baby Betsy in the baby cradle to sleep since Friday. Today I asked her if baby Betsy didn't need to wake up and play or eat, and she said that it was not time to wake her up and that she needed to keep sleeping. I am beginning to wonder if baby Betsy will ever wake up again! Baby Sam has provided much opportunity to pretend play for Molly, which for a mom is always fun to watch. She has changed her diaper, fed her, walked her, read to her, taken her for a walk to the grocery store, burped her, etc. You get the idea - Molly is in love and welcoming to the idea of being a mother to her baby - ahh, the mother hen personality trait is being fed!

Molly is a good mother! I am glad baby Sammy has found a good home. A cradle, a stroller, and some clothes....she is not homeless any more!
