Chance hears a bird squawk....

Chance picked out a plastic raven bird about a year ago from the dollar store. Each of his siblings got a different bird so they have spent hours creating habits for their "pets".

Chance ran up the stairs last week his birds wings flapping and said,"Did you know my bird says EEEK? Listen!" Then Chance vigurously pumped his hand making the bird look like it was going to take flight at any moment. Sure enough, Chance's bird said "EEEEK", just as he said. Chance beamed as he made his bird fly back down the stairs EEEEEEKing all the way.

Normally, Chance's bird and the noises it can make would not be something that I spent a lot of time thinking about. Now however, I am quite excited about that bird and the fact that Chance can HEAR the noises that it makes.

Chance continually brings seemingly everyday things to my attention and shows me just how exciting all of these sounds around us really are.
