[quote=Anonymous]I sing to them whenever I am trying to affect their mood (soothing songs when they are stressed, upbeat or silly songs when they are playful). I talk to them whenever they "talk" to me. So if they are crying, I might say, "Oh, I know! It's so hard to be little! You are tired! You just want me to stop changing your diaper and put you to bed! We'll be done soon, sweetie!" If they are playing and babbling, I might say, "I see you! Are you telling me about your mobile? You love that one! Do you like the lion on it? He has such a happy face! You love looking at faces!" About the only times when I don't really talk to them are when I am feeding them (because it can distract them) or when they are asleep.[/quote]
