Aaht






Maya has a lovey. She calls him Aaht. He is a monkey, well...they are monkeys, and monkeys say, "aaht, aaht aaht". Actually she has three of them, all the same, but one is the original and only I know the difference. She used to just carry one around, and generally still takes only one, but she insists on sleeping with all three of them. Aaht comes with us everywhere, and we even lost him in a Rhode Island hotel and had to have him mailed back to us. Maya likes to sniff the tip of his tail when she is super sleepy, and sometimes she puts his tail in her ear. I love to see the way she falls asleep with all of her monkeys around her, and I love that she has something that makes her feel so secure. Here are some pics of Aaht over time.

Cute! We have a monkey named Monkey over here, at least your DD was a little more creative in her naming!
