In the book, a baby bird hatches and sets out to find his mother. Among the animals and things he thinks may be his mother is a backhoe. He calls it a "snort" for the loud, snorting noise it makes. As such, any big piece of construction machinery is known as a snort at our house. And all snorts are amazing in Lila's eyes. Lucky girl, there is a lot of construction going on around our house right now.
Imagine our delight - ours every bit as much as Lila's - when we came across this beauty yesterday. For once when she jumped up and down in a store and declared, "it's for Lila!", she was absolutely right.
It was practically made for her.
