Dinky Nomie O., the beloved lifelong companion of Edith Jane Knoebel, died Saturday, October 11, 2008. Formerly known as binky, Dinky Nomie O. received its new, endearing title nearly one year after beginning its devoted relationship with Edie.Dinky and Edie spent every day together. Not a nap or night went by that Dinky did not selflessly aid its companion drift to sleep. Dinky spent most of its life in Edie's mouth, as well as some occasional moments on the floor and other various germ-infested locations. Dinky served as a friend, bribe, and comforter.
You will be missed.
View here for highlights from the funeral:
Edie seems to have recovered quickly. We thought nights would be a nightmare. But, she has taken the loss like a man. She hasn't even turned to fingers or thumbs.
She has asked about what the binky will grow into. I think she's hoping for a binky tree.

i think you are the funniest person ever :)
I find this to be a strange combination of heartbreaking and disturbing. The night time burial is fairly reminiscent of the mafia...
In November our binkie is going to die a slow death...but I'm thinking it'll just be buried at sea.
Way to go Edie! It reminds me that 'change is good'. Now it's on to better and greater things. (Just remember to water and fertilize the binky tree so that you get lots of new little ones.)
that is hilarious!
I want to be there in 50 years when someone is digging and finds a binky in a box :)
Thanks for sharing such a tender moment with us. We feel blessed to be a part of such an occasion.
PS- I love the double stroller above
I feel like I am watching a lost episode of the Office. Is nate supposed to be Michael or Dwight?
