or more precisely humpback I believe.

Driving down the road, all around town running errands I start hearing Bug make noises.  After a few minute I realize that she is “speaking whale” like her beloved “fish” do in that movie she loves so much.  A few minutes of guttural sounds, growls, and spittle flying all over the van, I ask her what she’s saying.

I get more whale speak.

When she finished entertaining herself with that, she moved on to making other noises she has learned from the boys.  I tried vainly to redirect her to singing songs, I even sang Twinkle Twinkle Little Star again.  It didn’t work.  I only managed to upset her, which meant that for 15 minutes I listened to her cry, and say “want out.”

Which I guess is better than “I wan-it.” But only slightly.
