I didn't give this video enough back story. Yes, Megan can speak English. The story is that before the bath Megan and I were having fun yelling back and forth at each other in make up gibberish with each of us changing or modifying the sound each time. It's just one of the bazillion-and-a-half made up games you get when you have a kid. So that's why she made up names for each of her creations on the side of the tub. Last night the creations were more conventional; cake, darba (pasta), sheba (pizza), cupcakes, etc.
That reminds me of another story. For months now Lori and I have been offering Megan a choice of three different shapes of pasta whenever we make Darba (pasta) for dinner. She has fun making the choice and feeling involved. Last night we ran out of pasta, so Megan and I went to the store to pick out some more. I don't think she had ever done that before because when we entered the pasta aisle her eyes went wide and she had furious fun picking out bag after bag of the different shapes and colors. Her impression when first entering the aisle... "Wow".
It's nice to have a kid at the age where the little things are still stimulating.
