Robbie has come to visit

Did you have an imaginary friend when you were growing up? I don't remember if I did or not. But, Tuesday, "Robbie" showed up after nap time to play with Derick. It was pretty cute to listen to him talk to his new friend. Derick kept telling me where he was and what he was doing. Usually, it was pretty much what Derick was doing. When Daddy came home, he was introduced to Robbie. When we went in the car, Robbie came along and sat in the back. Derick said, "He'll be OK back there, right mom?" Jeremy and I had a hard time keeping a straight face while listening to Derick tell us what Robbie was up to. And, I thought it was sweet and was touched that Derick is so interested in making new friends. Since Tuesday, Robbie has only made a few other appearances, but we are always ready to welcome him.

Oh! This brings some cute memories from my childhood. My imaginary friend was Pedro. I think I was four or five when he was "around"...

I think all littles have an imaginary playmate, at sometime. Mine have had a few. Glad you are having fun with it!
