Callia is funny
Callia laughs at funny things without being cued.. she has for a long time. She laughs at Laura, me, tv.. anything that is funny, she responds to it with laughter, smiles and sometimes applause.
Tonight at dinner, Callia made a joke. It's not the first one, but it's the funniest thing I've heard her say so far. I forget what she was talking about. She speed babbles and throws in random English, repeating phrases a lot so if you pay enough attention to her you can follow her train of thought and understand the gist of what she's saying.
We were eating chili and just all talking and stuff and she's saying something. I wish I could remember the phrase! She repeated it, and drew the last word out long and put a smart-ass inflection on her pronounciation. Laura and I busted out laughing and Callia got excited and laughed with us. I said, "That was hilarious! Callia you made a Funny! Daddy is so proud."
"Callia is funny!" she exclaimed. She repeated this with glee the rest of the night.
Later on, we were watching a dvd of the 4th season of HBO's "Mr. Show" (the greatest sketch comedy show ever - created by David Cross and Bob Odenkirk) and Callia payed attention (she normally does NOT watch tv and will go turn it off if you try to watch it) and laughed out loud at the funny lines even if nobody else was laughing.
I'm tellin' ya.. I know Funny when I see it and this kid's got The Goods.
