Celebrating the Small Things

You might think it small, but in our world, this was HUGE!  Both Max and McKaden have thrown in the blankies .... yes, no more sucking of the thumb or fingers while sleeping.  During a playdate, a month or so ago, at their friend Mattea's house, they learned that she got to go to B**ld A Bear to celebrate her not sucking her thumb.  For some reason the logic of a 3 year old won out of the logic I have been feeding them and Max decided to go for it.  Almost effortlessly he stopped sucking his thumb.

McKaden was not so easy to convince, but after seeing Max with his new dog, she decided she would give it a try to.  Two weeks later she turned in her chart and got to go make that horse that she had been so wanting to make.

So on to bigger and better things for us.  And to all of you parents trying to talk your kids into giving up blankies, pacy's and thumbs, just call in your local three year old expert to share her advice.  Wish I had known this earlier.
