Good bye to ''chu chu''

QY has bidded goodbye to her 1st best friend (pacifier) a month ago.

Ever since she is born, we have introduced pacifier to this new born naughty baby who likes to cry non-stop at mid-night. Nothing can stop her from crying, except the pacifier can do a good job sooth her down…. Yes, I am totally aware of the ‘side effect'(like teeth not growing nicely and etc) of having a habit of 'eating' a pacifier but do we have a choice? Thereafter, pacifier or we called it çhu chu’ has followed her day and night, night and day from few days old till last month (2 yrs old and 9 mths old).

The whole incident happenned when mommy decided it’s time to ‘destroy’ her pacifier from her life. During the dinner time, she was there with me at the dinner table. I took her pacifier and dipped into the curry and asked her whether she still want to have the chu chu.. She burst into tear immediately when seeing her beloved best pal has chili sauce… I explained to her that the chu chu can no longer be 'éaten' and must throw it away. She shook her head and pledge not to throw it away. I felt so pity for her but still, I acted firm and throw the chu chu into the dustbin in front of her…. She cried and cried very sad…

That night, she slept without her chu chu… She can't even sleep and kept on asking for milk before she can finally fall into deep sleep. Few days later, she can finally survive without the chu chu anymore...

This is a picture of her with her best friend when she was 2 months old.
