Thumbsucker

Dear Ruby,

Well thumb sucking is beginning to become an issue for you. I realize you will stop eventually, but at first it was only a ploy for attention, and I think now you are rather dependent on your sweet little thumb.

We are working on sharing and when you grab something and say "MY TURN!" We are trying to get you to put your fingers together and ask instead "Can I have a turn,please?"

You are imitating your cousin saying "her her her" which is not very nice.. so we're also working on that.

Other than that, you are wonderful. You throw away your sister's diapers without me even asking.. you are working on potty training. You are trying to be a good eater, especially when there is princess soup involved.

Your favorite song right now is Laurie Beckner's "March of the Dinosaurs", which you call "so-sores".

Love,
MAMA
