While delivering lunches to elderly clients, I often brought my four-year-old daughter along, and she was endlessly fascinated by canes, walkers, and wheelchairs. One afternoon, she fell unusually quiet and stood frozen in front of a glass of dentures soaking by the sink. I expected questions—but instead, she leaned in and whispered with total seriousness, “The tooth fairy is never going to believe this.”
It was one of those unexpected parenting moments that proves kids see the world in the funniest, most imaginative ways.
