She's got rhythm

                                                                                                                                        
This isn't my story to tell although I do feel somewhat responsible and since it's funny, cute and slightly embarrassing I'm going to share it.

A mom in church, who recently had her second child her oldest is two, came up to me and told me after she had her baby her mother stayed for a while to help out. During her stay the little two year old got into Grandma's personal belongings and started playing with them.


Now this may not seem out of the ordinary as little children do these sort of things but what this particular child was playing with was Grams tampons. She was using them as if they were rhythm sticks.


How do I fit into this scenario you ask? When I was the Nursery leader at church watching 18 month to 3 year old children, part of our activity was to move and dance using rhythm sticks. It's the preschool teacher in me, I can't resist.

The kids loved the brightly colored sticks and were actually pretty good at using them appropriately rather than hitting each other.

Imagine my surprise when the mom was telling me about her daughter, I mean, who knew we had such a musical child in our mist.


I wish I had a picture, but the one in my mind of this little girl sitting and playing rhythm sticks with her Grandma's tampons is enough for me.


Rock on baby rock on!!
