Every morning inorder to get Jacob to dress himself I lay his clothes out so he can easily put them on without frustration. I was getting frustrated one morning when he was laying around, not attempting to put on his clothes. As I reminded him from the kitchen that he needed to get dress he explained, "I am making me, Mom!!" I had no idea what he was talking about and then he said, "Look at me!! Look at me!!"
He had laid his shirt, shorts, underwear(peeking out from his shorts), and shoes so that he had indeed made "ME!" He also ran and got a pillow for his "invisible" head and his blankey and blue dog (because they make up "me" as well). I couldn't be frustrated anymore but eventually had to end up encouraging him to put his clothes on the real boy.
