substitutes.

I know I've had this thought before and even maybe already recorded it, but I wanted to record it {again} while it's fresh on my mind.

This morning I was nursing you, Aimee, and kept noticing that you were trying to sneak your little thumb in your mouth at the same time.  It was cracking me up!  But I couldn't help but think of how you were trying to substitute something that comforted you temporarily with what could really nourish.  How often am I doing this?  I'm reading the scriptures, praying, or at church (all times and places where I can be spiritually nourished), but distracted by things that I have grown attached to, that temporarily distract or comfort me?  I'd like to be better at this!  Thanks for the reminder, sweet Aimee :0)
