At 3:00 am this morning - what were you doing?

Steve and I were up with our darling, wonderful PITA Zach. He was totally wired! Was it the fact that we had some supplement problems?

What was that about? Steve was so exhausted he was mad at the little guy. Totally understood.
But what did I do? I played with him. And then we sang. I knew this would soften up Daddy a bit in his way-too-tired state. Yes Daddy was surprised when I sang to Zach and left out words - Zach filled them in.
Me: Twinkle twinkle little
Zach: star
Me: How I wonder what you
Zach: are
Me: Up above the sky so
Zach: high
Me: Like a diamond in the
Zach: sky
Me: Twinkle twinkle little
Zach: star
Me: How I wonder what you
Zach: are
We also did Row Row Your Boat, the ABC song, and Ring around the Rosy. Yup - he filled in the words here and there where I paused. I was tired - but the joy of this moment, even at 3 am, will not be reduced by the exhaustion.

Zach is definitely "getting there", Leanne! He clearly has receptive language now. I do remember how excited I was when Anna started doing the same, and now I am as excited for you and Zach. I hope that as time progresses, Zach catches up more and more.
