I have a son (a son, a son).
He's a boy (a boy, a boy).
He's a he (a he, a he).
He's a him (a him, a him).
His things are his (his, his).
Is this terrible of me? Sometimes, in my mind, I forget the Little Prince is a boy. I find myself thinking she/her/hers.
I KNOW he's a boy. He LOOKS like a boy.
But sometimes? I slip. I think I'm just conditioned with the she/her/hers. I have been, after all, a mom to girls for the past 5 years.
I hope this gets better soon. He's three months old already, and I'm still having issues.

Ha! I did this just a bit with my first son and his sister was 13 years old when he was born!!
