I was driving home late one afternoon with only Lauren in the car, sitting in the seat directly behind me. I could see the top of her head bobbing in my rearview mirror and suspected she might be falling asleep. I asked her, "Lauren, are you awake?" A dumb question, given who I was talking to, since Lauren is the child who currently declines to speak above a whisper. I couldn't hear her, couldn't see her if I wanted to keep my bumpers in roughly the same shape they were in when I left the house, and for some reason, at that moment, I really wanted to know whether she was awake. I decided to ask her to demonstrate a newly acquired skill.
I said, "Burp if you're awake."
She complied.
