This is Dini. He has been Sasha's companion, safety blanket and pillow since she was a wee babe. He completes her. We left him at day care this evening. We discovered this disastrous oversight just as we were trying to put her to bed. She has been turning the house upside down looking for him. We are in for a loooooooong night...sigh. I have just ordered a back-up a few minutes ago so this will never happen again. The last time we misplaced Dini it was in Toronto airport a year ago. We had the Airport authorities Fed Ex him to us at substantial cost..we could have bought 8 Dinis for what it cost us. This time we will pay in sleep hours. Come to think of it, I think I will order a few more after this so all she has to do is reach out and she will find one...reminds me of when she was a baby and I used to scatter a whole bunch of pacifiers in her crib so all she had to do to when one dropped out of her mouth was to reach for another. Dini, we miss you.

ohhh....such is one's attachent to one's Dini! gotta say, she looks adorable holding her dini in snoozeland.
john reza for some stragne reason, is not attached to anything at all - he could not care less about his Rhino, his GaryTheBear or his blankie. i am wondering if he will grow up with 'commitment problems' in relationships.
I should not be worried. I myself never understood this fascination with dolls and blankies. To be honest, we actually encouraged her to use Dini as a sort of safety blanket, her copanion wherever she goes so to speak. We just didnt think it would prove to be so successful...hahaha.
