Swimming with Memphis

Baby Memphis is the first baby (finally) you've ever taken to. I suspect that prior to Memphis moving in next door, you weren't too fond of someone else getting more attention than you. Then all of the sudden, you meet Memphis and decide he's the next coolest thing to ladybugs and Buzz Lightyear. I noticed recently that when you talk about him you use the pronoun "she." I explained that Memphis was a "he," a little boy. You got a faraway look in your eyes, thought for a minute and said, "I'm just gonna call him a she." Even after he's grown, I can imagine you'll still be calling him baby Memphis.
