The Sound of Music

You may not know that my husband is a talented musician. He doesn't advertise. Our daughter is a musician, too, even if she doesn't know it yet.

Her Hindi name means "song," yet another indication that she will fit beautifully into our family.

If she has musical roots, she will be right at home in our house. We will sing to her every day. We already sing every day. That's how we communicate.

When our wonderful social worker asked routine home study interview questions regarding how we would respond to various scenarios involving our daughter's emotions, we said we would sing to her and with her.

We'll sing when she's worried, we'll sing when she's sad, we'll sing when she's happy, you get the idea...and when she needs to learn a life lesson, there might be puppets involved.
