Sophie is over 2 and a half years old now. It’s amazing the speed at which she’s grown up. We have full conversations where I quiz her about her day and she describes how she’s feeling, what toys she’s been playing with, and makes some self-projected stuff up about pink teddy.
When she was younger we disovered she was a bit of a “sucky” baby. Not in a “YOU SUCK!” kind of way, but well, she seemed better with a dummy (pacifier). Yeah yeah I know what some people say about dummies and to a certain degree they’re right. Dummies are a pain in the arse, mostly at the time when you want the child to give them up. Don’t get me wrong, Sophie only has her dummy when she’s sleeping, and even then she can cope sleeping at Day Nursery without it, but at home she’s had it since she was really very young.
