Honesty

Although we've been trying to break him of the habit for quite some time, Briggs still occasionally sucks his thumb.  Usually when we put him down for bed at night, he tucks both arms under his body and then we'll cover him up with his blanket.  The other night I was putting him to bed.  He stuck his thumb in his mouth, and I told him "Tuck your hands under, buddy.  You don't need your thumb."  He immediately took his thumb out of his mouth and tucked his hands under his body while I covered him up.  Then he said, "I will suck mine thumb after you close the door."

And I have no doubt that he did.
