Eva is very imaginative and will become very absorbed in whatever she’s playing, but Amanda gets attached to specific toys for days at a time, keeping them close by her wherever she goes. Usually it’s a set of plastic animals (mommy and baby elephant, giraffe, or zebra) or a princess doll (Cinderella, Belle), but this week it was a little folding calculator she found that she called her “computer” (apparently imitating my laptop). She brought it with her to Eva’s ballet class and accidentally left it behind, unaware that it was gone until we were almost home. It was near dinner time, the baby was crying, and I was pretty sure I’d seen it in the diaper bag, so I didn’t go back for it, which made Amanda really upset. But she soon found a replacement at home and has been carrying it around ever since. Heaven help us if we lose this one!
