Bye bye Pami!

It has been one week since we took Rubi's beloved "Pami" away. We had been telling her it was "Yucky" so in the last weeks she had been lovingly referring to it as "Yucky Pami" - not the outcome we had been looking for. In the end we just had to take the leap and cut all the ends and throw them away. I wanted to cry just as badly as she did but we all made it through relatively unharmed. Once in awhile Rubi still asks for Pami but I remind her that we don't need Pami anymore and she says, "Pami broken. In trash." Breaks my heart - my little girl is growing up.
