Just dropped by to say hello. I received the wonderful toy from Ducote's today. Persia really took to it.... I tell her that she has a "new toy coming", and she has started saying "toy,toy,toy". Of course I have already said "toy.toy.toy" several million times before she picks up the word. I have noticed that when I introduce a new word or phrase by using it several times during the day that she does not use the word until exactly three days later, and at that time, it becomes a part of her vocabulary. She loves "Old McDonald Has a Farm." I sing it and say "and on is farm he had a (pause...pause..pause) parrot with a ...." and she says "quack quack" and I say "here" and she says "quack quack" and I say there and then she joins in with "E I...E I.......O". Of course we both dance during the song. What fun. I am on vacation this week and refused to leave, because I did not want to leave my Persia. (I will have to get over this, because I have always been a traveler!) I did save some money by not traveling........this will help pay for all the new toys. My best. jimmy
