Everyone else was so concerned about it and we knew that when he was ready we would help him stop using it. I pray things go as well for you as it went for us when you decide it is time :) Acreage of Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10828582677029826495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6552741419262615144.post-11816745811090201042016-06-25T14:13:52.688-05:002016-06-25T14:13:52.688-05:00I actually hear a lot of parents say that!
