I have been told on separate occasions by the parents of two different children at the Spawn's day care that their children ask about her, or call out her name, at home (or maybe in the car, not entirely clear).
I am unsure what to make of this. The natural assumption for the proud parent of a Spawn would be that the other children so adore her that they pine after her when she is away. However, given my own experience with her, I wonder if perhaps there might be other explanations.
Maybe they are playing a game that they see the day care attendants play several times a day, when they look around and ask, "Where's the Spawn?" before realizing that she is in the other room, pulling all the board-books off the shelves.
Or perhaps the children in question are at home in their living room, peacefully enjoying themselves or playing with their parents or siblings, when a sudden fit of panic seizes them and they must ascertain that the Spawn is not toddling up behind them, ready to bonk them on the head with a plastic block and gleefully shout, "OW!"
We may never know.

Stockholm Syndrome?
That is a uniquely adorable picture of an already exceptionally cute kid.
I think the Spawn is destined to be a leader of men (and women).
Or an assassin.
Or both.
