Music has become one of our secret weapons when nothing else will calm Cecelia. Here she was calmed by Mom's version of Elton John's Rocket Man with improvised lyrics to reflect the moment.
In this case the chorus was:
" I think its going to be a long, long time before this baby will no longer cry. I've had no sleep since I have been home. No, no, no, no. I'm a sleepless Mom. Sleepless Mom! Wishing that I could go back to bed. Sleepless Mom! Wonder if we should have got another dog instead?"
Of course, I am kidding. Silly songs. Good for baby. Cathartic for mom.
Good night, bunny. Mommy loves you.
