Emma: Okay now we are going to play Mommy, Emma, and baby. ALLIE, YOU HAVE TO BE THE BABY. (Allie, 20 months old, continues to play with the teacup.)
Me: Okay. So who am I?
Emma: YOU ARE ME.
Me: Okay. Hi, I'm--
Emma: NOOO, my turn. Hi my name is Emma's Mommy and I like to take so many pictures and I love to Facetime and I know Kelly.
Me: Hi, I'm Emma, my best friend is Kelly and I want to be the Beast next time--
(Emma puts her hand up)
Me: But this means I finally get to be the princess.
Emma: NO!! I AM ALWAYS THE PRINCESS.
