This is a letter written by Ashtyn after the Tooth Fairy
did a no show two nights in a row.
She was so excited that the Tooth Fairy wrote back.
(little blue pen hand writing)
There are a few words that you could use to describe Ashtyn. Some may use the words gullible, naive, ditsy, or air headed. I'll just call her trusting.
She always has been.
When Ashtyn was a bit younger her uncle Casey told her that she should put her gum in her hair. "OK."
A week ago my kids slept at my parents' house. The next day I asked Ashtyn what she did with Grandpa and Grandma. "We played tennis, and on the way back to their house (1 mile away) there were all these detours (4 miles worth) that lead us to McDonald's... (weird)."
The other day Chandler and Ashtyn were talking about how good the school orange chicken lunch was. Ashtyn informed us, "Did you know that it's not really chicken, it's squid. The lunch worker told me."
I tried to explain to Ashtyn that sometimes people lie, sometimes people are kidding, and sometimes people are telling the truth. Sincerely she asked, "But how can I tell the difference?"
I love the innocence and sweetness of Ashtyn. She reminds me that people believe what they hear so it's best to speak kindly.
