Where my passy go???

My sweet princess LOVES her Passy but it is not allowed at school and mommy is ready for it to go!! So we have been talking a lot how "big girls" don’t need a Passy and how we should give her passy to the babies, or how the passy fairy can come, or just put it in the trash. To say the least we would always get a negative response from her.
Yesterday in our rush to get Colby to school on time I did not grab a passy for the car ride to school. Addison talked and cried for her passy the whole way... and then it was the first thing she asked for when I picked her up! My response… “I am sorry honey we lost your passy” and she was ok with it for about 30 seconds then she would ask again and again. Then started asking in more detail… where the did the White passy go??? where did the Red one go??? I didn’t think she even paid any attention to the colors! These are the only two we have left which are the ones with her name on them that she has had since she was 3 months old. I want to keep them for sentimental reasons. (is that weird???)
Anyways… throughout the evening she continued to ask for her passy... my reply every single time "I am sorry honey we lost your passy" then I would repeat that about every hour. Now it is bed time… I am thinking man this is going to be HORRIABLE!! Yes she asked for it several times in a row... but she fell asleep quite quickly. One thing that made me laugh... her reply to one of the many "I am sorry honey we lost your Passy" was “ok I suck my thumb like Cloie" it made me laugh out loud because she was grinning at me like she knew better! She amazes me how smart she is at 2! So I am marking last night 3/10/2009 as Addison’s first night EVER to sleep without her Passy since she was born!! WAY TO GO ADDIE!!
She woke up this morning and didn’t even ask for it... she grabbed her silky (her baby blanket that is anther blog) and puppy Todd got her for V-day and we where off to school. Addie sits down with her friend named Ayla and tells her that her passy is gone... So NO more Passy!!!!

That almost makes me cry. I mean fantastic that she is such a big girl, and even more fantastic that it seems like it will be an easy transition for her. But that means she is a BIG girl. "Where my baby Addie go?"

Way to go!! That is such a hard transition for child AND parent. I feel once it's gone their not babies anymore. My goal with Logan, who LOVES his paci, was 2 yrs. Well he turned 2 on the 8th and still has paci. We have been talking about it I just haven't done it yet. One day we'll both be ready. :-)

Awwwwwwwwwww...TEAR! Isabella had hers until 10 days ago. She only had it at night time but still it was ridiculous. She called hers a binky though. She bit a hole in it & daddy said she couldnt have it because it was broken. I thought it was going to be much harder. She slept all night without it though and hasn't had it yet! Tear, Addie is such a big, smart, beautiful girl!
