A Cow Says...

Moo.

(Or, according to Adele, "Mbooooooooo"...but it's close enough!)

She has repeatedly answered "mbooo" when I ask what a cow says. It started last night when she was looking at her *favorite* ornament (a cow....I think she likes it because it's right at eye level when I hold her in front of the tree, but I "moo" every time we look at it.)

This morning she was babbling away when she woke up, and we sat in her rocking chair and "talked" back and forth for a long time. Finally I decided to see just how smart she is. I asked, "Adele, what does a cow say?" and without any prompting, she quickly answered "mbooo". We went on talking, and a few minutes later I tried again. Same answer. The girl knows what a cow says!

Thank you Sandra Boynton!
