Friend: “Sammy… Sammy… do you see my friend over there? Her name is Pegasus!”

Daughter: “uhh, no Anna, that’s a tree”

Later that night before bed Daughter asks me: “mommy, do you know that Anna see’s things that aren’t there? Is that okay?” LMAO.

I tried to explain about imagination, and all that, but my uber literal miss just rolled her eyes, said “If you say so mommy”, and went to sleep.

Your niece sounds hysterical, what a cool kid.

His pretend friends lived at the fairgrounds and apparently there were lots of them. Sounds like a fun place to live if you ask me

it only would have been better if your niece’s other friend was “Tragedy.”

Cole had imaginary friends for a short bit when he was a kid. He called them the “matend people”. At that age, he stuck “ma” at the front of everything. So instead of Nintendo, it was “matendo”. Anyhow, you get the idea. Cole said they lived at the park. That’s kinda freaky. Glad he grew out of that.

Speaking of imaginary friends, you should watch The Orphanage – http://www.theorphanagemovie.com/

If she doesn’t grow out of it, she’s tremendously gifted…or schizophrenic.

Maybe you should just *threaten* your sister with Christmas gifts for Katchoo & Co.

Oh man, if I sent Christmas gifts to the Katchoo and Comedy, hell will break loose. I told my sister she’d grow out of it, too.

But who knows? Maybe I’ll be going to their high school graduation.

I had an imaginary friend when I was a kid. His name was Peterson. I triple dog dare you to send Christmas gifts to the imaginaries. And don’t forget doggie treats and kitty toys for Silk and Silky Silky.

You can reassure your sister that her daughter will grow out of this. Or, you know, don’t. It might be more fun not to.
