We all sing to our babies, it is a classic requirement of motherhood-or fatherhood for that matter. My kids have always been huge fans of Twinkle Twinkle.  We occasionally sing "Moon Moon" or "On Top of Spaghetti", but "Up Up in the World So High" is Natalie's current favorite. I can clearly remember the first time Bailey sang the song along with me. I had tears streaming down my face. There is something about knowing your baby listens to you and absorbs what you're saying that is so touching. My little one, probably my last little one, did the same thing yesterday with the same familiar tune. It was magic all over again. Her teeny voice was so fragile and soft. It is those magical moments that video cameras cannot ever capture, but that we most wish we could remember. I want to cling to this one.
