becoming a famous musician
november 11th, 1999

the starfish is only a hair's breath away from rolling over! she will get
her entire body turned towards the floor except for her shoulders and head
(usually because she's got her fist stuck in her mouth!) she mimicks
people now, and sings...if you sing to her, she will make some random baby
sound in the exact same key! i'm pretty impressed by that one. she also
sees her reflection. hold her up to a mirror, she looks at herself and
just starts smiling so big! (everyone keeps trying to tell me that she
thinks there is another baby in the mirror, but i'm not so sure i believe
that! *wink*) she still has her days and nights mixed up, but such is the
way of things. she's been really fussy the last couple of nights, though
she seems to calm down when i play her music. maybe she's the
reincarnation of mozart, or some other old musician--she'd be off on the
right track, anyway, with a name no one can pronounce! ;)
