Yeah it's pathetic.
Like many kids, my DD (aged 2.5) has a wee snuggly rag that she takes everywhere with her. Would rub her nose with it when she got tired. It was manky and smelly. Washed regularly but never seemed to lose it's rather gross appearance and odour. You know the type of thing I mean.
To cut a long story short, DD took it to nursery and lost it. They can't find it anywhere. Suspect it's been put in the wrong bag.
This rag has been lost many times before. But we have always found it with a bit of effort e.g. Ten laps of shopping centres etc. But it might really be gone this time.
DD is handling the loss fairly well. Surprisingly well. I have been distracting her when she looks for it and I've told her it's having a sleepover at the nursery. She has her moments but she's ok.
I feel utterly bereft!! This thing has practically become part of our family. She was so reliant on it. I just feel really sad about it and I can't put my finger on why. I think I wanted to keep it when she outgrew it, I dunno. Or maybe it's just the end of an era.

AIBU?
To feel more upset about the loss of DD's snuggly than she does?
