After everyone but Shin and Heather had left our house the day of River's baby blessing,Zuri disappeared into her room by herself, which is very uncharacteristic for her. When I went to investigate, I found her by her window on the floor.
She said she was sad. I asked her why.
"I'm afraid my baby is going to die." Her "baby" is her big Belle doll, which she hasn't touched in over a year, but has started playing with since River was born. She will do everything from change her "diaper" to put her to sleep.
Okaaaay, morbid. Where did that come from? "Why do you think your baby is going to die?"
"Because I don't have any milk in my boobs to feed her." Oh, oh, oh! I had to turn away so she didn't see me laughing. Shin left the room he was busting up so badly.
Since she didn't want to use her "boobs" for imaginary milk, I gave her a bottle to feed Belle, and she was a happy camper.
