Slobbery...wet....all red and mis-shaped...

 

  

  

 Hmmm....still at it.......

"Oh the thumb-sucker's thumb

May look wrinkled and wet

And withered, and white as the snow,

But the taste of a thumb

Is the sweetest taste yet

 (As only we thumb-suckers know)."

 Carter: Vigorously sucking his thumb...*pop*....and offers it to me, 

"Hewe, mooom."

Me: Crinkling my nose as I watch a drip of slobber slowly roll down his thumb, say,

"No thank you, Bubba!"

Carter: Gets a little grin on his face.

"Mooooom....you thuccckk dum!"

Me: "No, buddy, mommy does NOT suck her thumb! It tastes yucky!"

Carter: "No moooom! Tase goood!"

"Dadddeee thuccckk dum, mooom?"

Me: "Nope. Dad does not suck his thumb either!"

Carter: "Nope. Daaad not llllllike it!"

"Nanna thucccck dum, mooooom?"

Me: "Not even Anna sucks her thumb, only Bubba!"

Carter: Matter-of-factly replies, "Ya....dust Bubby thucccck hims dum!"

Smiling ever so big....cute little dimply-dotty-adorably cute-faced buddy then says,

"Taste-dee!"
