Our little Bear Bear is musically wired! He loves to hear music, whether form the radio or from his little electronic toys. As soon as he hears it he starts moving to the beat. He will bob up and down, or wave his arms, or turn in circles. He love, love, loves it when Mommy or Daddy picks him up and starts to twirl him around in circles. He will lean back and stare at the ceiling as it spins and spins above him. He loves music!He has even taken to trying to direct the music by waving his arms.
Is he a musical maestro in waiting? Perhaps! After all, his Opa (that's German for Grandpa) is a "Wolfgang", his Oma (Grandma) and his mommy both play the piano and organ and his Daddy was voted "Most Likely to Win a Grammy" in high school!
Anyway, one day as I was working at the computer, he was playing on the floor behind me. He always tries to play with Mommy's pendaflex folder full of sheet music that is on the shelf. This particular day, he did it quicker than ever, and before Daddy could deter him, he had gotten it open and was rifling through the music, pulling them out, looking at them with a wrinkled brow and a deadly serious look of concentration, then throwing them aside, as if he was looking for something specific that he had been working on. It was just funny, and made me wonder, if he knows something I don't. Soon enough we will know.
For now though, we will enjoy the dancing and the singing and the directing, for it gets better everyday. He is a joy to behold.
