Today, Eric's mom took all of us to Holiday World. We had such a good time, and spent all day in the splash park, baking sunscreen permanently into our eyeballs and going really, really fast down water slides on tubes!
On the way there, Kaela wriggled a tooth out. (They're dropping like flies these days!) By the time we finally dropped off Eric's mom, grabbed dinner and dragged ourselves into the house for the night, we had decided to just clean out the car first thing in the morning.
Except...Kaela's tooth is in the trunk. Seriously, we'll all pooped. And now the tooth fairy needs to come for this tooth that is, well, Lord knows where in all that mess. We told Kaela that the tooth fairy knows when a tooth falls out, and we're sure she'll visit, even though she won't have the tooth in hand, exactly. Not yet, anyway. We offered to write a parental excuse note to leave under the pillow--an IOU, if you will. And first thing in the morning, we'll go on a proper excavation.
She wasn't buying it. She sighed, rolled her eyes to the heavens, then grabbed a couple of pieces of construction paper, a pencil, and a clipboard. In a minute, she returned...this note in hand:
Der Tof Farre
I lost my tof. Please beg me a toe because Mom left my tooht in the cor.
Love
Kaela
I'm a horrible mom. She's an awesome kid. I'm betting she melts the Toof Farre's heart with a note like that. =)
