The Dummy Fairies

With his digger and hat I made which also goes most places with him now :)

We warned Zach a couple of weeks ago that when he turned 3 he would have to give up his dummy.  However, on Saturday I notice his dummy was broken so thought I'd seize the opportunity and told him he'd have to give it to the dummy fairies that night.  We told him he'd be a big boy and really grown up like Leilani and he seemed pretty happy about the whole idea.  And Lani helped too because she could remember when she gave her dummy to the fairies and they brought her some ponies.

In the evening I was expecting some problems but he was actually quite excited and decided to leave his dummy on the kitchen side for the fairies.  Went to sleep fine, slept through the night with no problems and woke up in the morning to find a toy digger from the fairies for being such a big boy.  He's carried it around with him everywhere since :) And he only mentioned his dummy once the next night, we reminded him it was gone and he had his digger and that was that.  No problems.
