Jo Jo and her new friend?

Jo Jo was doing really good not sucking her thumb during the day, until she got sick. Now she is sucking it ALL the time. She knows that she shouldn't be doing it either, because she will quickly pull it out whenever she sees me. Sometimes she will get into her bed (or mine) during any part of the day and pull the covers over her, like it is ok if she is in her bed.
Well anyways, tonight we were at my brother-in-laws house and I took Jo Jo to the bathroom before we left and while she was sitting there she says, "My thumb is crying."
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"My thumb is crying and wants her mom to put her in her mouth."
"Your thumb is crying?"
"Yes! And she wants her mom to suck on it."
I started laughing and left the bathroom.
Now I don't know if she has made her thumb a real (imaginary) being or if she was just being funny. And if she did make her thumb real should I be worried? And if it was real, why would she want to be sucked on all the time? She gets all shriveled up and wrinkly when wet. And I love how she refers to her mouth as her thumbs mom.

Oh Jo Jo you make me laugh so much. I don't know where you came up with it, but sure, whatever makes you happy.
I love you so much and your little thumb too!!!

That is pretty hilarious. When I tell Addie she can't suck on her fingers she tells me that they help her not to cry. I don't think she has ever thought of her fingers being real or not though.
