hi dog no ball go

[Guest guest]

Long story but I'm doin' the happy dance.

My daughter just recently started consistently putting two words

together and she'll do a three or four word sentence with cueing.

(She's 30 months old). Since starting Vit. E we're getting more and

more words and word combos and she has added some ending consonants to

her words (da became dog, duh became duck, etc.)

Anyway, today we walked downtown to the chamber of commerce. As we're

leaving there's this dog in the doorway. The dog proceeds to follow us

all the way home (several blocks). I check his tag and see that he has

a microchip. We contacted the company and they were trying to reach

the owners. So... I ended up entertaining this large dog (while trying

to keep our four cats from finding out) while we waited to hear from

his owner. (No good deed goes unpunished?)

Anyway, I'm tossing a ball to the dog and trying to keep him from

wandering off. The dog eventually tires of this and lays down. He

picks up the ball and sets it beside him. My daughter then says " hi

dog no ball go " . It's the longest " sentence " we've ever had and the

string of words was totally appropriate for the situation. The dog

isn't tossing the ball back to the ball is a " no go " . I was totally

stunned.

Thank you vitamin E.... and Charlie the lost dog!
