Current mood: shocked
The amazing Mia strikes again!!!! She shocked us all, yesterday, by her latest amazing feat! She can actually count! I am not talking about 1 and 2 I am talking about counting all the way to 7!! We are so proud of her. Heres how it happened...
This whole week Mia and I have been on "vacation", just the two of us. We are here in Oxnard with my parents (Mia's Grandparent Pizano). Yesterday, she was sitting on her Grandpa's lap at the dinning room table. My Dad had set up the laptop for her to watch her Elmo shows on. She was just sitting there relaxing drinking her milk cup.
Then a section of the show came on where they count fish one by one. Immediately she stopped drinking her milk, took the straw out of her mouth and started counting all on her own! My Mom and I were in the livingroom not really paying attention to what she was doing. Then my Dad quickly got our attention and said "Oh my goodness shes counting!" My Mom and I quickly stopped what we were doing and looked at Mia. My Dad replayed the Elmo part again and sure enough we heard...
Elmo: "One"
Mia: "Un.."
Elmo: "Two"
Mia: "Tu"
Elmo: "Three"
Mia: "fee"
Elmo" "Four"
Mia: "Four" (as clear as can be)
Elmo: "Five"
Mia: "th..a" (she had trouble with this one)
Elmo: "Six"
Mia: "Six" (clear as can be)
Elmo: "Seven"
Mia: "seevnn"
I was so shocked... completely speachless and overwhelmingly happy and excited!!! We all cheered for her and she did it again and again!!!! YAY MIA!!!! I quickly called her Daddy to share the news with him and he was just as excited as we were!
My little girl, not even 2 and already counting!!!! I can't wait to see what she does next!
Ps. I am so glad that all that Elmo watching is paying off... man that little red monster drives me crazy!
