Quiet moments, Ambient Rhodes Mark I Piano and Sequential Prophet 10
Tonight, I told my daughter (3 yo) that she shouldn t keep calling us from her room. She often calls out and when we get to her she makes up something she needs, that isn t a need at all. Like, I need you to pick up that stuffed Although normally it s, I need you to cover me I had already gone up once to help her go to the bathroom, which, surprise, she ended up not needing to do. When she called a second time, I knew it was to cover her up. So I didn t go. She called out and called out and I knew that going up there would just reinforce the behavior. Eventually, her calls died down and I looked at the monitor, at her just laying down without blankets. So I went to her. I decided that I guess I just don t really care if she calls me again and again. It gives me a reason to see her just one extra time. I sat next to her, covered her up (which she said thank you for covering me up, and then hummed her songs (she asked). There s honestly nothing better, nothing more important, in this world
