Yesterday for the Steelers-Chargers game, my two-year-old niece wore her Steelers cheerleader outfit. We said the Steelers needed her support and she should give them a cheer.
She started shouting sounds. “Ah! Oof! Whoa! Ack! Yeah!”
We all stared. After a minute, my brother realized that she was imitating us — those were the sounds we made while we watched the game.
Which is absolutely true. Whoa!
