Word Association with a 2-year-old

Scene: Last night at dinner. Ellie is playing with her juice cup.

Ellie: Mama, roll a cup.
Me: Yes, Ellie, you're rolling your juice cup on your tray.
Ellie: Rock and roll!
Me: (eyes wide and laughing) Where did she hear that?
Harry: Maybe from WPLR?
Ellie: Rock-a-bye, rock-a-bye, baby!*
Harry and I: (dumbfounded) That's good, Ellie, that's good.


*We honestly couldn't tell which song she was referring to... Rock-a-bye, Baby the lullaby, Rockabye by Ani DiFranco, or Lullaby by Shawn Mullins.
