+1 and new poster. Such drama over water bottles in a post and behind the scenes I never knew could exist!

We have our story for those that want to be entertained. Hahahaha.

My daughter, tween or maybe young teen a few years back is also hard on her insulated Klean kanteen. She chews the sport spout and her tooth marks are everywhere all over the spout. Looks awful but that’s the way she likes it.  One day when I was taking it out of  the dishwasher, I found the spout was totally free of tooth marks. So I asked if she got a new spout or something and she said no. She says it’s her friend’s!

So apparently they had something at the gym. She left her bottle there and went back to get it after but all the left behind items and water bottles have been put to the side and would nearly have been disposed end of the week. So she picked up one that she thought was hers and brought it back to class but only realized it wasn’t actually hers when looking at the spout. It wasn’t chewed.  She had no stickers and the sharpie she wrote at the bottom has probably worn off.

At the end of the day she saw one of her school mates waiting out at the driveway with the same bottle and she stared at the spout. She says it seemed like hers. I was like wow. How could you tell and my daughter giggled and said she recognized the two deep tooth scratches she knew she made on it when she was bored at gym class and was biting away and twisting the spout around her mouth.  she had just lost a tooth then so the other tooth was really sharp and so made a few deep tooth gashes on the spout that was really distinct! Wow. That’s one sure way to recognize your own water bottle!

Anyway, the girl said no. Insisted the bottle in her hand was hers, claimed she also chewed her bottle and was sure it was hers. She also didn’t want to entertain the exchange back for a nicer looking bottle spout.

Whatever the case, it didn’t take longer than a week and more tooth marks are now all over this bottle. We let it be and if she likes chewing it. So be it.  She should be old enough to handle these things. We were not going to fight her or around the lost and found or helicopter a snowflake like someone else spout will make you sick etc and force order something on her etc. she lost it, got it mixed up and she will learn to deal with it. The L&f was also probably all done with the bottles too and I know our school dumps them or send them to the thrift every Friday.

My daughter, now 17, is still a water bottle biter and still has this bottle. Her other bottles (hydroflask included) have her tooth marks on them too and she claims she can always still recognize her own. She can also always tell if her sister is using her spout mistakenly too. They have the same color and the younger chews her bottle too but maybe not as much! My bottle has NO tooth marks and I can tell mine!

So lost and found, stickers, names or not. She knows her chewed spout! She might even recognize if it was ever OPs scenario if she ever lost a lost bottle in the mall!

Haha hope this keeps you guys entertained.
