Well, this girl loved her pacifier so very much that when she was four years old, she still used it to sleep.
Her mom and dad were fed up with the over-use of this little plastic toy (and having nightmares of the dental bills to ensue), and encouraged her to stop the habit...so finally, on April 16, 2008, the little girl accepted her mama's challenge to sleep at night without her "gukky." She was rewarded the next day with a new dinosaur!
The next few nights, the little girl continued sleeping without the gukky, even when spending the night at her aunt's house!
With four nights of guk-free sleep, the family knew it was time to call in the Gukky Fairy. On Monday night, April 21, 2008, the little blond girl and her sister strung up all the gukkies in the house and hung them on the bedroom door:
In the morning, the little girl found this note:
...and this special PlasmaCar!
Woo-hoo! Celebration of a guk-free life at the Bass house!

Aaaw, a real fairy tale! Love it!!!
Not bad as a cautionary tale either... my instincts are telling me to start packing up those things around here too, before M starts calling the shots :D
I second the Aaaw....She was ready. I remember you working on this back in November when we saw you. Beautiful resolution.
So cool. Great idea, too.
You ROCK Jen, what a great confirmation of her very real sacrifice to give up her gukkie. (Never heard it called that before, btw!)
