Learning the ABC's???

I think every parent brags at their child's genius. They show off their latest tricks so proudly while onlookers simply nod and smile politely yet think to themselves, 'yeah, not so much'. Now, we don't think Laila to be a genius per se, but she shocks us sometimes with the things that come out of her mouth and the level to which she totally understands us. Yesterday we were looking at some pictures and she pointed to the letter B, saying "B", then went on to say bee, ball, boon (balloon) and biscuit. I thought 'surely she didn't just do that, it was a fluke, she's only 16 months'. I was telling Mark about it later on and I'm not too sure he believed me since she wouldn't do it a second time. He took her out to the store however and in the car started saying, A, which she automatically followed up with, "apple", B "biscuit", C "coat", D "duck", (some letters she misses), F "finger", she doesn't say it but waves them around and finally landing on L-where she roars like a lion. To be fair she has an ABC book that she is basically repeating from memory, but that is what reading and learning is all about. So, it's your turn to simply nod your head and smile while I show off our daughter's genius over a lunch of tortillas and cheese!
