So, when I was a toddler, I had a security blanket (it was actually my mom's silky blue bath robe) that I used to call my "mio". I didn't part with it until I was about four or five. I used to suck my thumb as I ran the silky material through my fingers.
Well, Javi stopped nursing (that used to be his security blanket) about three months before Benji was born. When he would get upset, nothing could comfort him. When he wanted to go to sleep, he didn't have anything to comfort him. So my mom decided he needed a "mio", so she sewed together some silky scraps of cloth and that became Javi's "mio". He can't go to sleep without it! Thanks, Abuela for making it!
(He just woke up in this picture, so he is looking a little grouchy!)
