Thumb Sucking

I must say, it can be downright thrilling observing your daughter try to do things for the first time. To a large extent, we think our lives will be easier if Tali is able to find and suck on her thumb to soothe herself. We'll often give her a pacifier, but if it falls out she cries and we have to run back to her and put it back in. She'll sometimes kindof suck on her fist, but her thumb is always tightly inside the fist. Just now, I've been watching her in her swing, and she's sucking on her open hand. I've been rooting for her to figure out the thumb bit, and she's sooooo close! It's exhilerating hoping she figures it out.

She's finally getting to the stage where we can see her learning things. I'm so proud!

Sorry if I'm sounding corny.
