Whenever Evan gets tired, he holds onto Dumpy, his security blanket, and sucks on his thumb. He had only sucked on the thumb on his left hand until we noticed a week or two ago that he had sucked his thumb so much that it was completely raw! The skin was cracked and peeling and it had gotten very sore for Evan. He had to force himself to start sucking on the thumb on his right hand. He has been sucking on his right thumb ever since, which has given his left thumb time to heal. I looked at his left thumb yesterday and mentioned to him how much better it looked. He got a huge smile on his face and said, "That means I can suuuuuuuck on it again!"
