More Autumn Fun in the Summer

Autumn's favorite activities are swimming and eating Popsicles. She likes to rhyme non-sense words. She'll say things like "Autumn's tickle, Mommy's lickle, Daddy's brickle,..." Some funny things that she's been up to are
1. Hysterical crying when Grandma and Grandpa drove off in their Ford Fusion that looks just like ours. We showed her that our car was still in the garage. Even then she was only pacified when we explained that we had two cars, and Grandma and Grandpa were borrowing one of them.
2. Autumn can put away the utensils by herself. She gets out her step-stool. Then she takes the spoons and forks out of the dishwasher, climbs the step-stool, and puts them in the correct slot (most of the time) in the utensil drawer.
3. Autumn was looking at a book with a picture of bears camping up in the mountains. She pointed at the picture and said "Our jeep goes up there."
4. Autumn can now work wooden puzzles. She's learned to rotate the pieces into the correct position.
5. While watching a song about the letter X on Sesame Street, Autumn went to the fridge and brought back the X magnet. She can say the whole alphabet, only missing about 5 or 6 letters.

I still don't think you understand how exceptionally brilliant she is.
