Key Points
While I was out with my kids, a stranger saw my 2-year-old sucking his thumb and began lecturing me..
My daughter asked why the stranger wanted him to stop sucking his thumb I didn't know what to say..
Her response reminds me that everyone has their own way of feeling better and that's OK...
As my younger daughter listened to her big sister talk, a fox blankie tucked into her tiny fist, she popped her own thumb into her mouth...
And that made me a little bit sad.. "Do you think that woman sucks her thumb at night?" my 8-year-old asked, making us all giggle...
