Our office nurse is nursing an extremely verbal 3 yr 11 mo old girl.  She
discusses the flavor of the milk... but anyhow, I mentioned to her mom that
I knew a 5 yr old (nearly 6 yr old) who is still nursing too, and she said,
"I know.  Emily asked C. if she still nursed and C. said, 'a little bit'."
It's funny because C.'s mom has been asking me how to wean her since she was
a yearling, (I told her "don't offer but don't refuse")  and here they are,
still going strong.  Makes me giggle.
