Ask Emily what a cow says and she’ll be happy to tell you. The mere mention of a pussy cat will have her meowing with glee. Inquire about elephants and you’ll get a trumpet in the face. She’s always been very good at animal noises.

Sheep, monkey, horse, duck, snake, dog, and most recently, monster. Emily can do them all.

But it’s been a long time since she’s learned a new animal noise (monster notwithstanding). Until a couple of weeks ago, that is. Emily’s grandma was kind enough to teach her what roosters say. Then all hell broke loose. We heard nothing but cockadoodledoo (or, as Emily likes to say it, “cockle goo”) for the next 48 hours. I kid you not. 48 hours! And frequently since then. Think I’m exaggerating? Here’s a video that lasts just three and a half minutes. Now multiply that by 822 and you get two days. Try watching this video 822 times.
