One of the presents Cori received today was a seek and find book from my Mother. In this book there is a "Key" on each page with a number of objects you are to look for in the big picture. It is pretty cool. Cori was cruising along and entertaining Granny, Grandma and me with her wicked smarts by finding all of the pictures she was asked to find. On about the 4th or 5th page, she was asked to find a birdcage in a picture featuring the Littlest Mermaid characters. Cori looked high and low for this birdcage. It was a pretty big picture and we were all a little surprised that it was taking her so long to find it. After a few minutes, my Mother started to give Cori some hints about where to look. In the end, my Mother had to point it out to Cori and say, "Here's the birdcage" Cori looked at her with some confusion in her face and said, "It has a fish in it" When we looked at the picture key, we realized that the picture of the birdcage in the key was empty. But the picture of the birdcage in the big picture while NEARLY the same was not as it had a large fish in it. So basically, Cori was pointing out to us that the pictures were NOT the same, and therefor the game wasn't over. None of us could argue with her. She was in a sense, smarter than the person who put the book together. I can see that her Father and i are going to have our hands full with this one!
