You might have noticed we like cows. The other day, near my aunt’s, we drove past the local elementary school. Next to it was a farm, and two young cows were curiously looking through the fence. (Maybe they were hoping, like Pippi Longstocking, that some wisdom would come out the window and stick with them.) Anyway, Daddy pointed them out to us, and our girl gleefully counted them:

“Un bébé vache et un autre bébé vache – c’est deux bébés vaches! ”
(One baby cow and one baby cow – that’s two baby cows!)
