didn\u2019t notice it much.\u00a0 She would grab a stuffed animal and stealthily put the tag in her mouth while she sucked her thumb. \u00a0Once we did start noticing it, we ignored the addiction.\u00a0 We thought it was just a phase, and\u2026well, it was just too stinkin\u2019 cute to stop. \u00a0<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\">I must admit that I aided her in her addiction. \u00a0I made her a taggie blanket. \u00a0Tags at every 4-inch interval.\u00a0 It was a tag NIRVANA.\u00a0 Her eyes glazed over and she started shaking just looking at the magnificent treasure. \u00a0She practically dived at it since I was not bringing it to her fast enough. \u00a0I have now made her more since if she doesn\u2019t get her fix she starts to go into withdrawal.\u00a0 That first blanket could go for weeks without being washed since she wouldn\u2019t go to sleep without it.\u00a0 <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">It is a sad sight to see.\u00a0 She starts getting the shakes and her eye starts twitching.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">It\u2019s not pretty, but we will have to deal with this sometime. \u00a0I figure when she is 5 years old\u2026or maybe 10 years old. \u00a0That\u2019s a good round number.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Times New Roman\"
