Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
la la laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
me me meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
oooooooweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....
Baby, baby, has an arm, Wooooooo, here it is!
Baby, baby, has a leg, Weeeeeee, there it is!
Hello, baby, I am here, you are there,
just together, together we, sharing our discoveries...
This goes back to my first conscious moments of my crib days...
It must have been either the first day home from the hospital, or close to it...
My Aunt peering down into the crib- my very first memory...
she went back into the kitchen to socialize,
I was left alone in the living room, and...
Out of the corner of my eye I saw an arm...
it was MY arm, I discovered!
I could MOVE it!
Legs!
I had LEGS, too!
So I looked around, and there was nobody to share my new discoveries with...
I fell asleep...
So the first four lines are for that granddaughter/son of yours
for his/her first crib days...
just spending time there would be social evolution.

OMG! I am rolling on the floor here at Paul's comment above. He is such a bad boy! This made me smile Wayne. It brought a lot of warmth and pleasant feelings to mind. Those first moments of discovery and wonder as I child begins to explore their world is such an awesome thing to view. Thanks for a great entry sweetie.

God you have a good memory I just remember discovering my pee pee still havent worked out what its for forty years on lol
well done with this Mr Wbiro -
This is so sweet, the words a baby hears make her a part of her mother's world, the familie's world, a world in which she will thrive and grow. It's never too soon to talk to the child, the familiar voices will make her feel loved and wanted and safe and secure.
Well Done and best wishes for the contest.
