Reassuring

She knows how to mother.

Standing in the doorway, swaying her hips, rocking her baby doll to sleep. Giving the baby doll its pacifier, putting it to bed. Since mastering the skill of caring for a doll naturally she feels ready to tackle the task of caring for a real baby.


Step one: Baby cries, quickly reassure while patting babies head a little too rough. "Me right there, Me right there, Me right there."




Step 2: If 1st attempt fails give screaming baby pacifier and continue to reassure. "Me right there, Me right there (getting louder until she is yelling) ME Right There."

Step 3: If your attempts are still failing jam pacifier further into screaming baby's mouth and continue to reassure through song, "AB AB QR AB Now Know AB next time sing me."


Step 4: If baby is still crying find baby's mother, "It otay Mommy come in a wittle bit."

She loves you Vera, but she's just not ready to be a mother.
