Prince M

It seems that more and more princess M shows signs that she really just might be a prince in disguise. Some of her favorite things include, worms, digging in the dirt, dinosaurs, making car/truck sounds, and watching basketball with dad. When she and Princess E play dress ups, we ALWAYS have to convince her that she is a princess to, not the prince like she tells us she is. We tell her that dad is the only prince in our house, that they both can be the princess. A few nights ago as I was putting them to bed, I gained more evidence that she really is a tom boy at heart.

I was in the middle of reading a story and she began pointing to Princess E and saying in a gruff scary voice "mell my finger, mell it! (giggle, giggle) Mell it M." To which Princess E was squirming away and saying " no, get it away from me!" I stopped reading and said what is wrong with your finger? So she turned to me and with a big grin on her face begins wiggling it towards me and saying, again in the gruff voice, "Mell it mom, its stinky!" I ask "why is it stinky?" She just gets a huge smile across her face and Princess E says' " It was by her bum!"
All I could do was shake my head back and forth and just say, "Oh, M. you are a girl, you are a girl. Girls don't do that kind of stuff, Oy!"

So I think every day we are realizing King J really does have the little boy he dreamed of. LOL
