Pat-a-Cake and Other Amusements

Up until now, Mia has not shown much interest in dancing and movement. Imagine my surprise the other day when the background music in an educational video changed to a march. Without warning, Mia stood up and marched in place. I suspect her new preschool music class had something to do with it.
We can see signs that Mia is understanding more and more words. She had her first therapy session with the speech pathologist yesterday. After the session, the therapist reported that after she engaged Mia in a game of pat-a- cake, Mia stopped the action and went to her bookshelf. She searched a while among the stacks and then produced a book called Pat-a-Cake!
