Honey

When my kids play Mommy+Baby, they don't have a Baby.  They have a "Honey."  As in, "No, this time I get the be the Honey and you be the Mommy."  Or, "Honey, time for your breakfast Honey."   And when we get involved, it's the same, only more specific.  Like this morning, when Fionn came scrambling around the corner with a shopping cart full of toys:

"Have you seen my Boy Honey?  I need to bring him this present."  Mike was upstairs working on the new guest room, so I helped Fionn drag the cart upstairs.  "Honey, big surprise..."  And Mike, amazing Daddy, played along.
