A Bittersweet Farewell

The time had come to say goodbye to the loved and cherished binkies. They've been good to us for almost 2 years now. But these days they are more of a crutch when sleeping. And let's just face it, the Bubbie is a speech therapist and knows what they can do to mouths and in turn, speech. So Monday (April 12), it was time to break the binkies. One by one they started losing their ends. And one by one the twins marched them down to the trash can and threw them away. Broken binkies are no good. Tuesday was the final day of departure. And it was a bit sad for the girls. Crying and talkng for about an hour was in order. But Friday there was no crying. Only remembering the good times with the binks. May they rest in peace and never return to the Sharer house again.
