Lost Tooth

Talmage lost a tooth at school and forgot to bring it home for a while. When he finally remembered to, he lost the tooth out of the envelope. When I went to tuck him in for the night he started to cry. I asked him what was wrong and he explained me that he had lost his tooth, but he couldn't find enough money to repay the tooth fairy for the lost tooth. I didn't quite understand until he showed me the envelope. He had gathered all the money that he could find and put it in the envelope and wrote her a note. He was really upset that the tooth fairy would be mad at him for the lost tooth because he didn't have a dollar to repay her. It just melted my heart to see him worry in such a grown up manner.
