Goodbye!

Bo-Bo's. Today Avery and I packed up her bo-bo's and gave them to Sonia's new baby. We had a mini ceremony as she said goodbye and tucked each one in the box. Although she did shed a few tears when saying "goodbye" she did remarkably well. I don't know who it was harder on ...her or us. Now, we do know this should of been done a long time ago. She is our last baby and "oh" so cute, and I suppose a bit spoiled. But, here we are today and she was ready. She went bed tonight a little later than usual in the hopes that she would fall fast asleep without thinking of her bobo. She mentioned to me with teary eyes that she missed her bobo but, only moments later she was asleep. "Yeah" for Avery.

Avery Hope, Gigi is so proud of you for giving all your bobo's to Sonja's new baby! Her baby will just love them and this must mean you are really a big girl and not a baby! I love you so much and thank you for being so thoughtful to the new baby! Love You, Gigi

Good idea! It is the hardest the first night...it should get easier! Don't give in later because then you have to start all over. It is better to have Avery go throught the "trama" once not twice. Way to go! I will have to use that idea with Brooklyn next year. Did Sonja have her baby? When? What is it girl/boy?
