Every morning after Sophia gets her second diaper (yes, second diaper, not first) changed she scoots over to her crib (it’s a small room, she doesn’t have far to go) and reaches through the bars for ‘friend’ if she can’t reach him (can a pink blanket be a ‘him’?) she’ll get upset and I toss the blanket to her. She will then pop her thumb in her mouth and flop forward onto ‘friend’ as if she’s praying to Mecca. No, she doesn’t face the same direction every time, and I have no idea which direction would be the appropriate one to face in my house. Anyway, it’s hilarious and I have pictures for you my pretties. This morning she took it a bit further and drug the blanket with her to the next room. She’s getting extremely attached to ‘friend’ and she won’t nap without him. I wash ‘friend’ each time she recovers from a cold or stomach flu and it’s hard to time it so that he’s clean and dry for her nap or bedtime. I can see her ‘friend’ looking very much like Kurtie’s old ‘friend’ very soon. Would it be appropriate to name a girl Linus?
She’s laying on her side in this shot. It was the best “Mecca” pose I got. Usually she’s totally flopped forward with her face buried in her blanket.
