Hope & Perseverance

Alex lost a tooth in October. That night, I was exhausted and fell asleep before he did. The tooth fairy didn't come. We repeated the sequence the next night.

This morning, as I woke him for the day, he pulled a pouch out from under his pillow, glanced at it and set it on his headboard.

"What's that?"

"My tooth that I lost before Halloween. I'm sure the tooth fairy will find it one of these days."
