Baby Sale

Well, the process is beginning to take place. I have listed baby items for sale! I am beginning to receive calls about items-and I will price things for a garage sale, as well. It really is sad, but it is the way it is meant to be. I have some precious memories-and emotional attachments to these things. As I pull them out of the attic, I have flashes of memories, that come flooding back to me.
The baby monitor, for instance...I remember watching her sleep or the times she would cry standing up in her bed...it was so sad. Rich and I had a hard time just letting her cry--it never lasted long. I would quickly pick her up and rock her to sleep.

Mackenzie turned on her mobile music--the lullaby...she remembered it! Her eyes lit up so excited to hear the old comforting sound. The pack and play-that was not "girlie" so we could use it again if we had a boy. We were so practical in purchasing bedding, toys, and stuff which could be used for girls and boys. These practical purchases---only to be used by one child. sigh.

One of my favorite purchases was the musical potty!! I made up a potty dance--and we would sing and dance everytime she would accomplish a BIG JOB. I was so proud that she was potty trained at 18 months...she was/is such a smart little girl!

So, it's time for us to have a Baby Sale.
