Binkie bye bye update

It has been a long week. For the second week in a row I taught 13 classes. So it would have been rough even if we weren't dealing with binkie withdrawal. She actually had the hardest time in the afternoons when she wanted a nap. The most helpful thing at night was telling her a story. She loves the Murphy stories that my mom made up for us when we were kids. Last night she was out long before Murphy even realized that it isn't nice to leave a mess for the green fairy every day. She hasn't forgotten about the binkies but she is going to make it through. And so are we. But, we partly did this for the rash on her cheek, and the rash is back, even without the binkie. Bummer!
