Blankets

When I was a little girl I was obsessed with my bankie (blanket). I would smell my beloved bankie ALL the time. I am a bit embarrassed to say I was still loving it at the age of 13. Then my lovely brother Ken and sister Lisa "hid" it one day and I never saw it again. Well, one thing I would tell my brothers and sisters is that I could speak Mars (yes, I am very weird). Only my bankie or pillow(ie things I would smell) could understand Mars. So basically when I didn't want to talk or stop smelling, I would hum into my bankie. That was me talking Mars. Then they would have to leave me alone or it would buy me a little more time to get some extra sniffs in. I still have an obsession with smelling things. It has moved to my hair. It is such a comforting thing for me. So that's the back story for my children to read later to see just how weird their mom is, LOL.

Lilah is a little Tim. Everyone says she looks like him. Her demeanor is spot on, so very laid back, go with the flow, content. All her daddy. I was beginning to wonder if she had any of my traits. Then tonight while I was rocking her she spoke to me. She speaks MARS! Haha. She is a thumb sucker and also a blanket lover. She will suck on her thumb with a blanket in her fist smelling and sucking away. When you are singing to her at night she will start to hum, just like I did when I was little. So there you have it Lilah is just like her mom! We both speak mars. Now I am sure everyone thinks I might just be from mars. Haha
