3V0935.03 Growing big to be a daddy (8/14/80)

A few weeks ago Peggy mentioned she would grow big to be a Daddy.
I agreed she would grow big but that she would grow big like a Mommy
because she was a girl, would not grow big like a Daddy. Later, she
indicated a preference for growing big like Robby, not like Miriam.
As we drove to Jacob’s Beach, Peggy mentioned “I growing big like
Mimi”, and “I eat you up,” a phrase from “Where the Wild Things Are,”
a book we own and a movie Peggy saw the preceding Saturday at the
library.
