Abby got the movie Dumbo as a birthday gift. So, the first night we were watching it and it comes to the part where they were picking on Dumbo and the mom starts taking up for him and the circus people are tying the mama up, Abby starts saying " sad, sad " in this sweet little sad voice. Then it switches to show the Dumbo and Abby says "awww, awww" like she feels sorry for the baby. It is just so pitiful in her little voice. So, now when she watches it and it goes to that part, she comes running to me and saying "sad, sad" "dora, dora" "turn off, turn off" like she wants me to turn Dumbo off because it is sad. I didn't know that a child at this age could understand emotions. I thought this was a sweet but sad little story.
