Since the dawn of time people have troubled themselves over the question,
“Which came first? Chicken or egg?”
But here, in the land of Dawesome, we want to answer the question,
“Which is mightier? thumb or limb?”
You classic film buffs will know that this question has been put to the test before.
thumb?
OR
limb?
In Claudette’s case — it was the limb, no question!
But in the case of a certain gentleman who resides in our home it is most definitely and without hesitation
THE THUMB
Yes, my little man has found it!
He loves it.
It makes him very, very happy.
When I put him into bed each night I wait and watch as he plunks it into his mouth.
(He reminds me of Peter Ustinov as Prince John in Robin Hood)
He whimpers and cries until PLOP in goes the thumb and his whole body relaxes.
As he tugs away at that thumb, and I place a fluffy blanket over him I just WISH I could jump right in the crib, snuggle down in and join him…
it just so darn wonderful!
BLISS, people.
This is what is known as B L I S S !!!

I’m with Ellis, having been a thumb sucker myself, I would have to say THUMB wins :).
