It went like this, but longer:

Casper likes to feed the cat.
Last week she ate some cat treats. Shrimp flavor. I found out when she asked for more.
She calls Ellen's cat "Wosie." This slays me. "Come ayer, Wosie!"
She talks a lot and sings.
She carries heavy stuff (like the big bag of cat food). She staggers 'cause it's heavy. So cute.
When she tries to do stuff she can't (open a stuck jar), she grunts and groans. She doesn't actually push on the item at all. Just noise. As if the noise will open the jar.

She cried from 3-4:30, on and off. mr flea was in there comforting her. I was out there listening. I think this will work, though.

"Wosie" is "Rosie"?

Mmmm, cat treats...</Homer>

As far as the grunting and groaning to open the jar, she's mimicking what she sees adults do. She can't really tell they are twisting the top extra hard. She just thinks they're saying magic words. Like my friend's 3 year-old son who, when his grandma gave him a little toddler's workbench for Christmas, picked up the little wooden hammer and started pounding fake nails into the bench while reciting the words he'd heard his daddy say under similar circumstances, i.e., "Fucker! Fucker! Fucker!"
