Jon and his pacifiers

Jon is now 3 and we have been talking with him about giving up his pacifiers. He has been fairly ok with this idea and so we finally put it into play Monday night. We had Jon put his pacifiers in an envelope and addressed it "To: A New Baby"


Then we put them in the mailbox. He went to sleep perfectly fine that night and slept soundly all night, much to our joy! In the morning he went to the mailbox and there was a package for him.


In it was a note thanking Jon for the pacifiers and giving him three new race cars from the movie Cars. He was so thrilled!

All in all it was quite the success EXCEPT...

He hasn't been able to fall asleep now during naps! Here I though we were doing a great thing getting rid of the pacifiers and now he won't nap. AAAHHHHHH!
