Today, Gracie decided that she could get loads of attention by being hurt. In fact, she seemed to be amazed that we would give her an ice cube wrapped in a wash cloth for a bump or a kiss her "owy." She complained of "bolis" on her two thumbs and index fingers and wanted to be held or lay on the couch with band-aids on her fingers off and on all day. Of course, she had a miraculous healing at nap time when she wanted to be able to suck her thumbs again. "Nyama boli..."
During bath time, she even took her rubber ducky, wrapped it in the wash cloth, and found imaginary "bolis" on Daddy and Mommy's arms that she could put the fake ice pack over. She even kissed the hurt places and made sad faces while she said, "Oh, boli...." What a sweetie.
Note to myself: Buy more band-aids.
