It is a parent's natural instinct to test their toddler's rapidly expanding vocabulary with questions like, "What's that?" So I did.
She shrugged. "I don't know."
Thinking surely she should be able to recognize a simple apple, I prodded, "Come on. You know what that is. Haven't you seen one of these before?"
And she gasped and beamed because she suddenly remembered what it was. "iPod!"
I laughed and said, "That's right! That's the same symbol that is on the iPod. And doesn't it look like an apple???"
"No," she shook her head... "iPod."

(BTW, we wouldn't even own an iPod if it weren't for Coptix purchasing them for all their employees a couple years ago. Thanks, Coptix!)
Oh,come on...Be proud! She looks so pretty here, like a snow princess.
