You know.....I told my T about the teddy bear and he said NOTHING!!! But it seemed so significant to me lol.
I was worried that I wouldn't be able to give the monkey back to my boy when he came back from his dads. So when he did, I told him "guess who has been sleeping with Mummy? Jack" He asked why? I told him Jack wanted to and he just shook his head and said "Noo Mummy, you got him right". Then he was looking at me with such a puzzled look on his face. I asked him "Is it strange that Mummy wants to sleep with Jack?" ..."Yeah, I don't know any adult that sleeps with a teddy Mummy". So I told him I needed company and could Jack sleep with me again? He said.... Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
Two nights later, after my boy had taken Jack from me that morning for a cuddle himself, I went to bed and found that my gorgeous wee boy had put Jack back into my bed under my pillow so that I would find him.

He is such a kind boy.
Jack Monkey is now back with my boy for the time being.....I think I have shoved my inner child back in the cupboard in my head. This facing your pain thing is a little tough for me. I need it to happen slowly.
