Tanush - thumbsucking!!



Well, the journal entry also has gotten scanned.. I drew this when Tanush turned 3 months old, on 7th July. But we had to take him to the Urgent Care clinic where I was getting myself checked for flu. He befriended the nurse there and giggled out loudly for the first time! I had never heard him giggle before..

Almost immediately afterwards, he was down with fever and a bit of cough..
(Pssst.. I think we received the whole not-well thingie from daddy Manu... He was down with bronchiatis the first week; which got translated into Pnumonia by the next week! Poor mom, was totally on her toes with us all..)

Your drawing is wonderful. You captured his expression wonderfully and the perfect softness and delicateness of baby hands. My son used to have that same look when sucking on his thumb. He will be beginning kindergarten this fall, and your sketch made me long for his baby days.
