Sammie, Sammie, Sammie..

Jack is asking me to type this for him because he's howling with laughter and rolling around on the floor. He's had his fun with birds before.

When we go to the keys we stay with some friends in their guest house. On their patio they have several birds, one of which is a myna bird. Jack has taught it to bark.

So, when we're there, if Jack barks, the bird barks.. sometimes the bird barks just to tease Jack, then it sets Jack off and he starts barking.

The bird is really funny, it can sound like a doorbell, and the telephone ringing.

Of course, the doorbell ringing sets Jack off, thinking someone is at the door.

So, Jack says, learn more new stuff.. and pick your moments when you repeat them. Repeat words for praise. If you don't get praise, then stop repeating that one, okay?

Okay, I think Jack has recovered enough from his laughter fit.

He'll sign his name.
