Claire loves all things Dora, so much so that she often has me call her Baby Dora. ( I know a lot of the reason that she is such a hard child is because she still wants to be the baby, but that is another post all together. ) Anyway her Dora doll is her constant companion she goes on car rides and bed time and has to be feed several times a day. I love watching her play with her baby Dora in her own little world where she is the Mommy and Dora NEEDS her for everything. What is not so wonderful is all the times she is pretending to be a baby and I have to carry her everywhere, because babies can't walk. Or even better when I am talking to her and all she will say is gaga baba mama or spit at me like babies do. I love this child just as much as all my other children, but she does drive me a bit crazy at times. I find myself wanting to hide from her. I know this is so sad, but I am just being honest. The other day I asked her if we would be friends forever and she said to me " No, you spank my bottom to much" and yes I do spank her (and so would you), but I don't do it every week even. The best part is when she tells me I am mean and asks for her Daddy. Oh don't I wish her Daddy were hear all the time to deal with her.
On a good note I will say she is such a fun and happy girl and I do love her very much!!! :):)

Oh Tillia! I can so relate, and it IS painful! My 5 yr old is constantly talking on a baby voice and it drives me crazy! My only little girl and she can't just be a cute 5 yr old! Good think she is cute. Very, very good thing. Try sending her with your hubby and having her call you on the phone. Now that is actually very therapeutic. They sound very cute over the phone ;) Gotta love them!
