    Antheia, we did the 'Santa took it to give to a baby who didn't have one' trick for Erin and it worked - she didnt worry about it after that. It helped that Paige never had one so she couldn't take one from her. Maybe you could *lose* it for a night and pretend to look all over the house for it and when you can't find it, settle her to bed and promise you will look again tomorrow? hoping that she will forget about it when it can't be found?
