Thumb Sucker

My daughter sucks her thumb.

Tonight, before bed, we talked about it. I was telling her that she should stop sucking her thumb. I asked, "does mommy suck her thumb?"

"No." She said.

"Does daddy suck his thumb?"

"No."

"Does Grandma suck her thumb?"

"No."

"Does Grandpa suck his thumb?"

"No."

"See," I said, "No one sucks their thumb. Maybe you should stop."

She said, "Uncle Darin sucks his thumb." (Darin is my brother who lives in Las Vegas. I don't know the last time she saw him.)

I said, "Uncle Darin doesn't suck his thumb either."

She said, "call him."

So, that's how we ended up calling my brother at 8PM and asking him if he sucks his thumb.
