His Dogness

Dear Diary,

On Saturday night, I left a thank-you note for the fairies outside the kitchen door.

The thank-you note was for the necklace they left for me. The necklace had a clear heart on a purple-and-white ribbon. It is very beautiful.

I wrote the note on lavender paper. I started with a big sheet of paper, and I cut a little piece off of it. The note said, “Dear fairies, Thank you for the necklace. Love, Sparkle Girl.”

I folded the note and taped it with a tiny sticker that looked like a heart. In case the sticker fell off, I put tape on top of it.

I got some moss and a blue sequin and some flower petals and two helicopters from the maple tree in front of Scotty’s house and made a little pile. I put the note on top of that and put a clear glass jar upside down on it.

Before I went to bed, I turned on the light outside the kitchen door so they could see it. The next morning, I went and looked. Everything was still there.

The fairies didn’t see it because the light that I turned on was turned off. Mom thinks she might have turned it off by accident.

On Sunday, we turned on the light again. This morning, everything was gone, and the fairies had left me a new present.

It was two clear hearts on a pink tulip petal. I really, really, really, really, really like them.

I called up Kim to tell him about them. At first, he didn’t answer. About one minute later, he called. He might have been in the bathtub but I don’t know for sure.

He said he was very happy to hear that the fairies had come.

Signed, Sparkle Girl
