This afternoon we saw Baby Charlotte again as part of the Roots of Empathy program in our room.
We practiced singing a lullaby in case Charlotte got fussy.
We noticed how much Baby Charlotte had grown. She can hold her own head up a bit now. She can open her hands by herself.
Then sure enough, she got fussy. But she didn't want a lullaby. She didn't even care about being held and rocked. What she really wanted was to eat.
So we got to watch her drinking breast milk. This was the first time for some of us to see a baby drinking from her mom. After she ate, Baby Charlotte wanted to go home, so we sang our good-bye song to her and began to look forward to her next visit.
Tonight we are going to do our concert for our community. We are all ready and will do our best.
It sounds like the children are learning a lot from the Roots of Empathy Program. Hopefully baby Charlotte wasn't too fussy.
