"That's a Car Dealership!"

No recent pictures. Our camera batteries must be getting old - they're not holding any charge anymore. So for now, just a little story...

Lili'u is absorbing new words and concepts so quickly these days and is always eager to put her new acquisitions to use. Her memory for words and their pronunciation is quite remarkable, though sometimes it takes her a little while to work out the precise context and meaning.

Lili'u and I were driving past some car dealerships recently and she was enjoying the multi-colored balloons - tied to the cars - bobbing about in the wind. She asked why the cars had balloons on them and I explained that car dealerships often use brightly colored balloons and flags to catch people's attention. A week or so later, Chris and Lili'u were walking through a parking lot. Lili'u spotted a car with a balloon attached to it and announced, "That's a car dealership!" Chris was a little bewildered.
