We are quickly learning that Addie is more and more like her mother, not just because she's pretty like her, but because she's got her mom's smarts. Not to discredit myself, but 90 percent of what Addie knows is a direct result of Court's interaction. The two things that I can openly take credit for are teaching Addie to give "bones" (hitting closed fists together) and how to burp -- I've never been so proud and I think her ability to burp loud may keep boys away in the future.
Back to the point. We think Addie's smart and that she's smarter than every kid -- yes, I'm playing the my-kid's-smarter-than-your-kid card. Yesterday while Court was straightening up our room and Addie was pulling books off the shelf, she grabbed a book called Women in Pain and walked up to Court and showed her the book and said, "She's sad." Referring to the old women on the cover (see below). We've never showed her that book and haven't shown her the difference between happy and sad, so it was more evident that Addie's a smart, observant kid.
