Mama and Austen visited Starbucks today, as they frequently do. Mama loves her “special drinks”: Green Tea Latte. Austen also enjoys the apple & cheese snacks. While eating at the table, Mama gave Austen a small, empty starbucks cup to play with. Austen studied the cup carefully, saying “Cup” several times, and then started repeating the word “Star” as in “Starbucks.” Austen recognizes pictures of stars but there was no picture on the cup. Just the word! She must have seen the word enough times in books and videos to recognize it. Or else this was an incredible coincidence.
