Obviously big things going on tonight, but something heartwarming:
My daughter gave up her paci today. What makes my heart so full is we told her there was a paci fairy that wanted to give her pacis to a baby that didn't have one and if she was okay with that she could give it to me. This little 2yr old girl, with sadness in her eyes, handed me the paci from her mouth AND her blanket. Of course I gave her blanket back much to her delight.
At naptime today she quietly sobbed until she fell asleep clutching and biting her blanket. When she woke up she was greeted to several presents outside her bedroom from the "paci fairy". Since waking up from her nap she hasnt asked for her paci a single time. She just went to bed without crying or asking for it. Now she's asleep.
Always thought I wouldn't lie to my kids about fairies and such but not only did that work beautifully it showed me more what a beautiful little human heart she has. Dusty man.
