Pacifier Rules by Megan and Matthew

We thought we'd share a few of the pacifier rules we use around here:

• Green pacifiers are for Matthew and pink or purple are for Megan. However, if no pacifier of the appropriate color is available, substitutions are acceptable. 
• A pacifier not being used is worth more than one being used. None of that "a bird in hand is worth two in the bush" around here. If we see a pacifier not being used, we'll often throw the one we're using across the room while dashing to get it. (Note that it does need to be the appropriate color.) It occasionally happens that we can't actually get the unused pacifier (up too high, too far back on shelf, etc) in which case we'll revert to the other one.
• Crying with a pacifier is acceptable. Just because we have a pacifier doesn't mean we need to be pacified! When we need to let others know we are upset, we simply hold the pacifier between our teeth and wail.
