McCoy's New Security Blanket

Most kids have a blanket or stuffed animal that they love to sleep with. McCoy has a turquoise blanket that he always has to have! However, for the past week, he has added something else he has to have when sleeping...a basketball from the Alamo!

We have a video monitor so I can see him holding it on his chest until he falls asleep. If he wakes up in the night, he'll feel around until he finds it. Also, Kirk took him to bed the other night and he started crying. When Kirk asked him what he needed, he said "ball".

I don't know why he has gotten so attached to this ball! And I can't really understand why anyone would want to cuddle up with a basketball at night, but whatever makes him happy! Kirk is very excited about it though. He told me that Tiger Woods probably slept with a golf club when he was 2!
