Language Barrier

This morning Claire and I were sitting on the couch when Bella wondered down the stairs. Bella came to sit with Claire and I. She said something to us and Claire, having my super sense of smell noticed "Bella you're breath is stinky. You, get away". Bella apparently thought this was not a command or request to move further from us, but thought that Claire had called her a name. The name "getaway". So, Bella who is very sure of who she is and what her name is says "No, I not Getaway, I Bella". I looked at Claire and we busted up laughing. Claire reiterated "no, you, get away". Bella continued to be confused and argued "NO, I BELLA!" We didn't try to explain any further. It would not have worked.
