Moulding Child's Manners - Parent's most challenging task, cos if you do not mould correctly, its very difficult to mend later

I am very surprised to see my 10 months old kid suddenly raising her hand and started "aaaaaaaa.......aaaaaa......." in a rythmic tone. She is doing this very frequently now a days. During pregnancey, I used to hear continuously to the melodious music, from the CD my doctor gave me. And after her birth, i used to keep the same like music running throughout the day. Even I used to sing the music notes and hum them showing the thaalams with hand to my daughter. After few months she started humming the same after me when I do it. Atleast she used to try to do it. I am very much surprised seeing that. Then now she started humming herself, though it doesn't come correctly. She suddenly raises her hand and wave it as if doing thaalaas and say "aaaa.....aaa....". I am not aware whether all kids do it at this age or not, but the style she does it is really make me wonder how quick these children are learning things now a days. Also she gives me high five which I used to do with her myself right frm her 2nd month. She gives thank you which her grandfather used to do from the start. She does the bajan which her great grandma thought her by clapping hands.

I used to say "NO" nodding by head whenever she touches or does anything she shouldn't touch or do. Now, she nods her head to convey that she doesn't want to do anything. She handles anything in her hand when asked and receives thank you from us. If we ask to bring any object which is near to her, she herself pick it and give it to us. 

Whatever we do, either good or bad, children try to imitate us and learn from us. Such an easily mendable, sensitive minds they have. I realised that I need to be more careful from now. I felt in my mind that bringing up children is also a challenging task. Hope that I will be successfully completing that task. But sometimes I doubt asking myself "Can I???" cos I myself am bit kiddish.....hahaa.... ;)

I think this is the most challenging task for every parent cos if you do not mould anything correctly, its very difficult to mend it later(Learnt from Life - Siri :) Cheerzzz...). Ofcourse, these words apply to anything in our life. This is only a small thought that is bothering in my mind currently whenever I observe new changes in my child. There are many situations/examples I have observed in different phases of lives of people around me that satisfy these words. Soon I will present them in short stories with a work around.
