Toes!

Olivia watched very closely while I painted my toe nails last weekend. This was the first time she had shown interest in this, so I explained everything as I did it. She picked up one of my toe separaters and said, "What's that?"
I told her, "That's a toe separater."
She examined it a little longer, flipping it over, looking at it from all angles. Then she put it on her foot and said, "Toe. Shoe."
I was quite impressed with her thinking skills! She had heard the word "toe" and knew that it must be something for her foot. And after looking it over, the only thing that made sense to her was for it to be a shoe.
