This was originally an email sent to me long ago that I have modified to suit me.

What to Expect when You’re Expecting Book
1st – You read it and are current with which month you are in.
2nd – You read it here & there, especially when you have a question.
3rd or more – Do I even still own that book?

Binki’s – when dropped on the ground
1st – wrap it up and will not use it again until boiled and disinfected at home
