Little voice

Our Curly is a soft spoken guy.  His speech development is still a little behind his peers and a large part of the time we have no idea what he’s saying.  But he continues to improve and his teachers aren’t concerned.

A few nights ago he shocked us by starting to quietly sing along to the last few words in the chorus of “Moon River” as we sang him to bed.  And the next night he did the same thing with “Rainbow Connection” and again the following night with “Goodnight My Someone” (these are our 3 main rotation “lullabies”).  It’s just so heart melting to hear that soft voice singing the “and me”.  He’s a long way off from singing a whole song, but we love to hear him finding his voice.

  10. Aww. Rainbow Connection is our main lullaby too! I had no idea our little one knew the words until one day she started singing along. Cute, but didn’t help the bedtime routine that night 😉

  11. So sweet. I’d love to get a peek at him singing.

    Button “sings” (hums or lala’s) our night time song and it’s the sweetest thing.
