At 29, I will still reach for her thumb if it's within reach and I'm unhappy enough. Nothing in this world makes me feel as safe as that. Of course, now I'm staring at my hands and wondering where the similarities are.

I've been telling hubby this all along. Our little girl has his hands and I think of him every time she holds my finger. He still doesn't see it.

My son doesn't have much of me anymore, I think, but he does like for me to either have my hand sitting on his butt or my hand on his ear when he goes to sleep. If I don't do either one he'll grab my hand and put it where he feels he wants it and that's usually on his ear. Sometimes he'll even hold my hand while I have it on his ear. I'm told it's a comfort thing but I'm not sure who it's a comfort thing for: him or for me:) That’s so sweet!
