Imaginary Friends

Rosalyn has really grown up so much in the past 2 or 3 weeks. One evening we were playing and she came up to me and said "Here comes Carolyn, Cheeza, and Robert." I said, "Really? Where are they?" She said, "Here they are!" Thus began a new life for us....imaginary friends. That evening we spent lots of time playing with them. The next day she created "Kelly" who is 6 years old and "wears panties". This was a very big deal to her. That afternoon after bathtime, Rosalyn said Kelly had to go to the potty. I said okay, why don't you go with her. Unbelieveably, she went! What a huge step! She really potty trained herself with the help of Kelly and other "friends"! We now have even more new friends...Molly, Lindsey, and Jackson. When we eat at the dinner table, they eat; when we go to Wal-Mart, they go. It seems whatever we do, they do. It is really fun to watch. Some of her friends have purple hair, others have red hair and wear non-matching clothes. Oh, but she loves them! The month of January has been a huge milestone in Rosalyn's life. We're so proud of her!
