Kicking the Habit
jack made it through his first night without his thumb! beth made these cool gorilla mittens to help him. we're starting slowly, so he can still thumbsuck during the day (in fact, he's doing it as i write!), but for every 4 nights he resists temptation, he gets a little prize. part of me doesn't want to let this habit go, because it's such a sweet part of him, but the other part of me knows that it will be best for him to quit before kindergarten starts. so, that part is winning (for now). :)

Yay Jack! I like the gloves. I used to suck my thumb too, but it's much more fun to have a thumb that's not soggy.

You have a great blog! I'm behind in reading it. I'm going to have to take time to read through your archives. Yeah! I always love a good story . . . especially when it's true. I noticed you gave someone the Granola Bar. Does she want to write a devo =-)?

Jack, I am SOOOOO proud of you for giving up the thumb. I know you can do it! I only wish I had some gorilla gloves too!
