Once again, my daughter amazes me

Zoe has always been very sensitive to sounds and very aware of different sounds.  Sometimes that's not so good, like when she freaks out if I turn the dial on my iron or when I use the can opener.

But sometimes it's pretty cool!  She wants to know what every little tiny sound is, and sometimes I don't even hear what she is listening to until she points it out.  Most recently she has been interested in the sounds the cicadas make.  I told her those were bugs in the trees singing, and that they were called cicadas.  Now when she hears them she says "sound cicada!" very excitedly.
