Mirror, Mirror
By Mabel Jones Gabbott
I need no mirror on the wall To tell me I must mend my ways; My daughter, playing with her doll, Reflects each manner, tone, and phrase.
(1951)
Amen, Sister Gabbott!

Ack! My daughter is seven months and I know that she will be mimicking me in no time. I really ought to start censoring myself.

Oh, the truth, the awful truth . . . I “hear” my impatient voice in the ways my kids communicate with each other sometimes. [sigh]
