Case of the Missing Tooth
Alden lost a tooth at her Piano lesson. Unbeknownst to me she had wrapped the tooth in a bloody paper towel and asked her sister to hold it for her as she gathered her belongings so that we could leave. I grabbed the towel out of Mariah's hand to throw it away and the tooth went flying into the crevice of the sofa in the waiting room. We tried, and tried to recover it but to no avail it was GONE into the abyss of the sofa. Alden was crushed and cried all the way home! Later that night she came to me and asked me to write the words LOST, TOOTH, COUCH, PIANO, and PUT HERE with an attached envelope! She had wanted the Tooth Fairy to go find her tooth and left her a note! The Tooth fairy obliged and found her tooth. Not the one she had lost, of course but she'll never know!!! I wish I would've taken the picture before I had written over it... but I love her note very direct and to the point! That's my Alden! FYI... that box in the picture is a picture of her tooth, the one with the X --I guess she had messed up originally.
