Breaking up is hard to do!!

It's OVER--DONE.....after three WONDERFUL years--the relationship has come to an end. They were really good together...
--through the good times and bad times...
--they were inseparable...
-- and the best of friends.

But, sadly, Gracyn and her paci are no longer together. :(

We'd been talking about how when Gracyn turned 3, we would say goodbye to her paci. She only had 2 left--one for school and one in her bed. We took them both with us on our trip over Thanksgiving. She chewed a hole in the white one on the plane, leaving her beloved pink one as the last one left. One night in the hotel she informed us that pink paci had a hole too. :( But, she kept right on trying to suck them as if nothing happened. Once we got home, we talked about how they were both broken and we should throw them away--plus she was now three and didn't need them anymore. She threw them in the trash, said goodbye, and didn't look back. UNTIL....it was time for bed.
Oh my, I wasn't prepared for such heartache! I knew Gracyn would have a hard time, but I never realized how hard it would be on me! She was devastated....heart broken.
I wanted so badly to fix it--but knew that this was the best thing for her and eventually she would be okay. The tears flowed for several days when we would get ready for bed. But, I can proudly say that after 5 days, this baby girl is quite grown up and is getting adjusted to life without her bestest friend. We're so proud of you Gracyn Kate!! Breaking up is hard to do!!

Way to go Gracyn! We've been there (AK was 4 1/2) and it wasn't pretty. I think AK grieved hers for about a month!
