music...

TOGETHER! Hello to "flip flops" so glad to see you... Hello to "baby boat shoes" so glad to see you... Hello everybody, so glad to see you... Hello everybody, so glad to see youuuuu! Experiencing a music group as a mom, not as a clinician, was a new experience. Before we began, I made a point to remind myself to be baby boat shoes mom... and oh what a JOY it was! One of my favorite moments after the "hello song" was when my sweet WCL crawled away from the group...and what followed... Of course, my first thought was, "let me go scoop him up and bring him back!" However, I paused, reminded myself to let him "be"... continued singing and patting the floor to the beat and sure enough, in about 15 seconds he turned, smiled wide and crawled right back. What a wonderful, supportive environment... where babies can come and go, crawl and toddle away and come right back as they are ready! It was a simple group. Simple songs. Simple beats. Simple stomps, pats, bounces and buzzes. WCL loved every second. Smiling, laughing, cooing, crawling, snuggling... it was true baby JOY. Have a little one and thinking about a music group? GO FOR IT, you won't regret it.
