Little Hands

Earlier this morning I was entertaining Esther with a little finger play:

Here is the beehive, where are the Bees
Inside the hive, where nobody sees
Watch and you'll see them come out of the hive
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, they're alive!

Later I was trying to put her down for a nap, she was nursing sleepily on my nap, and trying to talk through the nursing: aah eeh aah eeh uh, oo, ee, oh, ih, aaaaaaaaa---as her bees came out of their hive. It made me think about how quick a toddler is to imitate everything we do.
