I don't think so

Sophie says this an awful lot. I must say this often for her to pick it up so readily.
She LOVES gum and wants a stick every day. She prefers the minty kind. I have some orange Orbit kind, but she likes the blue or green pack better.
She is showing more interest in drawing and writing, but not letters yet.
She draws things, makes a bunch of marks, then examines it and announces what each shape looks like.
She is drawing on her white board right now, and she just told me to tell her, "Wow, dear, that looks great."

pretend

Sophie is just really really into pretend right now. Currently, she is Cinderella and she has directed me to be an evil stepsister. I just ordered her to go cook me something to eat.

She loves wearing her princess dress (not any of the 3 fairy wing costumes she owns). She is also into drawing maps right now. She draws the map that tells us where the treasure is and the pirate piggies have to get the treasure.

This morning, we just colored for quite a while. She really wants me to paint and color with her. She always asks me to sit and color with her at her "painting center" which is the dining table.
