From my oldest daughter
I got an e-mail from Ruth over the weekend. I like good memories a lot and this one had stuck in her mind although I have no recollection of the incident at all. It did do wonders for me though to read how she remembers it:
"I just had a memory come to
me and I wanted to share it with you-
Rob is fixing the kitchen
sink and he is replacing the P-trap. Seeing the piece of PVC filled with gunk
reminded me of how once when I was brushing my teeth as a little girl, my tooth
came out and was washed down the sink before I even realized it had fallen out.
I remember my panic as a tooth is a valuable commodity to a little kid. I also
remember the most important part though and that was you coming and
taking the P-trap off the plumbing under the bathroom sink and saving the
runaway tooth. I remember being so impressed with you making the effort to save
it and I wanted to make sure you knew that and 20 some odd years later I am
still impressed that you did that for me. I can only pray that my girls
remember such things about me-
Thank you daddy for saving
my baby tooth-
All my love from your
big girl,
Ruth"
