So, everyone who has children knows the book "Brown Bear, Brown Bear". Tessa does not have the patience to read a book, so we end up flipping through the pages really fast while I try to read as fast as I can. There are many books that I have never read the last page of. Brown Bear is one of those books, so my shortended and condensed version is (read REALLY fast)....Red Bird - Tweet Tweet (I do ad-lib the animal sounds), Yellow Duck - Quack Quack, Blue Horse - hairball (I can't do horse sounds), Green Frog - Ribbit, etc.
So this weekend, I am reading the book and Tessa just walks off because some shiny object caught her eye. So, I just keep reading, the next page was White Dog and Tessa did her woof woof. I thought this was a conincidence, but decided to test her and said Purple Cat too which she meowed, Black Sheep she a-a-a-a-a'd (she leaves out the b), red bird - twee twee, etc. She did almost every animal with out looking at the book and I didn't read them in order to make sure she hadn't just memorized the sequence.
I just think it is so amazing that she has already memorized this book. It's one of her favorites (from her buddy Jack).

Amazing! It goes to show too that just because they don't seem like they are paying attention, it doesn't mean that they aren't.
