...And speaking of being a blink away from talking--

A couple of nights ago Andy and Bill heard Annie say "Daaa." Like "Dad," except for the last consonant. Okay, I'll give Bill that. I had been praying that the first word Annie says is Dad. (With the exception of last month's "OW!) So Bill gets the first word: "Dad."

But, just to top that, this afternoon Olivia was reading to Annie one of her favorite books, Dr. Seuss' "One Fish, Two Fish." When Olivia got to the page that says:

We see them come.
We see them go.
Some are fast.
And some are slow.
Some are high.
And some are low.

Not one of them is like another.
Don't ask us why.
Go ask your....(mother.)

Olivia waited a moment and Annie jumped in, finished the sentence and said, "Mama!"

Now, was I in the room when she said this? OF COURSE NOT!! But--Aunt Susie, Taylor & Olivia heard it. So there's my verification of this monumental accomplishment. Now you know that God answers prayer!
