Chicken goes.........

This post is inspired by the post on my other blog about cooking chicken ahead. It made me think...and brought back a funny memory!

When Marissa was about 18 months old, she was learning her animal sounds. I guess all kids do this about that age. When we would drive my some cows she would kick her little feet in her carseat and yell out at the top of her lungs" MOO MOO COW!!!! MOO MOO COW!!!!!!!!!" It was cute...at least to us :)

One of her favorite past times was to go through her entire repetoir of animal noises to entertain herself. It really was very cute, at least the first 4,000 times.

Funny how we as adults don't link things together, BUT.....

One night we were at the dinner table and Marissa was slow about eating her dinner. I urged her to take a bite of chicken. Out of the blue she yelled "CHICKEN GO BOK BOK!!!!!!!!!" Then it clicked.....she looked at her plate.....looked at me...looked at her plate.....looked at me.....

And scrambled down out of her booster seat.

Dinner was done.
