Baaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbyyyyyyyyyy yourself!

Gotta love babies
babies ARE NOT perfect. Babies just are.
You might just have a baby movin, cooin, cryin inside.
Say, “ahhhhhhhhhh.”
Take time and space for baby love.

InterPlayful Babying practices (choose one)

Wrap arms around you and hug
Nap for two seconds
Rock, sway, squirm or flop
Sing fake lullabies to you
Do Baby Kungfu
Ask to be picked up….(smile)
Oh, baby!

Raise a hand in blessing
We were all babies once. Raise a hand in a dance of blessing to the babies we once were and sometimes still are.
Catch the blessings being sent your way to Gloria Gaynor singing “I love you baby.”

By the way I was born 55 years ago today as were some of you! Go Babies!

Take a deep breath and let it out with a sigh.

    THIS WAS JUST WHAT I NEEDED!!! Wedding coming up in two weeks, and crazy new computer system at work requiring I work 15 hour days… And I can still baby myself! In fact, it’s required.
    Appreciating Interplay!
    Gigi.

  5. Happy birthday, Cynthia, Gemini baby! Friday virtual Interplays are a weekly surprise and satisfaction. Such a break from the schedule, and I practice every one. Nap for 3 seconds. What a fabulously cozy idea. Love, Lauren

    Happy Natal Day to you Cynthia! May we all remember the baby within and nurture the sweetness, wonder and exploration of our inner imp! Hope your day is full of such wonder and nurture. Smiles and a big birthday hug dear friend.

    Much too lazy to get up; just did the funnest hand and foot waggling dance here in the chair. Great music. energizing!

    At my consult group this morning (all seriousness), we suddenly looked out the large window that has a small reflecting pool nearby. A day-care center had released about a dozen 2-year olds who were toddling out like little ducks, all round and chubby and diaper-walking (you know that kind of waddle from the swaddle?).

    Great reminders to see the world and celebrate one and all. Happy B’day and thanks for these Friday treasures. Love, Bev

    Happy Birthday fellow 55 year old!
    I enjoyed this week’s theme so much.
    I realized as a parent of an almost 12 year old, I need to baby myself DAILY!
    Caroline and I played this am and I gave myself permission to be whiney and oh so lazy.
    Thank you SO MUCH for these weekly gifts of connection.
    Love,
    Jane

    Dear Cynthia, You make me so happy! I loved your birthday party at the “real” Friday morning, and now I’m loving the “virtual” Friday morning in the afternoon! Have a glorious weekend.

  13. Happy Birthday, Cynthia! It looks like I was part of a community that thought you’d like Babies! LOVE the context in which you chose to share it here, how perfect!
