Dear Paci,

Jessica Rolf Filed Under:
With the utmost gratitude, I thank you for your service to our family. You have provided us with countless hours of peacefulness and solitude.

As I reflect on the months you have been with us, I remember that when Dean was a baby, you gave us the ability to eat in restaurants, go to church services and enjoy our favorite tv shows. I must also credit you with the fact that bedtime and nap-time rebellions did not exist in our quiet home. We are also extremely grateful that you accompanied us on so many wonderful road trips.

While many moms may scoff at the thought of allowing you into their lives, you have proven yourself to be nothing but a peacemaker and companion to us. I hope that you are not offended that Dean has so easily cast you aside. You should be proud of him for growing into such a mature, no-help-necessary-except-for-my-blankie sleeper. After all, he is almost two and this relationship has carried on a little longer than is readily accepted by society (and doctors) even if it was only for sleeping purposes. I sincerely appreciate your services and will happily recommend you to any friends who may question your usefulness.


With appreciation,

Jessica

P.S. Please refrain from reappearing in our home as this may cause undue stress and tears.

  4. I called the passy "the babysitter". It is a wonderful invention that came straight from the hands of God.

    Dean -- I am proud of you. But stop getting bigger, it makes me too sad.

  8. How wonderfully creative! Who would have thought to write a letter of appreciation to the paci?! I am telling ya...you need to write a book. It would be a best seller for young moms...and grandmothers who remember Fi Fi (Dean's daddy's paci) and Joba(Dean's uncle's paci)!

  12. Jessica, you crack me up! That was too cute! Of course, it took Gabby and I several minutes to figure out who "Paci"(rhymes with "hockey") was. We thought you had a nanny! Yes, we're a little slow today.
