Diary of a Wimpy Kid

Sophia is totally into the book series called Diary of a Wimpy Kid.  She's probably read all of them by now. Nana got her this puzzle for Christmas.  It took the whole family to put it together and as our luck would have it we are missing one piece.  It's either in a really good hiding place or it got thrown out with the torn-up Christmas wrapping paper.

The piece is missing just like the first reader book that Lilly brought home from school entitled I See.  I've searched the entire house including looking through and shaking every single book we own just in case it slipped inside. The very last time I saw it was in a stack of books on Lilly's bed that she was going to read one night after I tucked her in.  Then *poof* it was gone.  Mrs. LaSalle, her teacher, said it will turn up somewhere, but at this point I highly doubt it.

Although I've got to give it to her, Lilly is extremely good at hiding /misplacing/playing with very important things.  For instance, on Monday night she hid Will's keys inside her Monster High toy locker.  It was a night when the girls had to be in two different places at the same time and I also had a meeting at church.  We didn't find the keys in time so I cancelled my meeting end ended up driving both girls around to their activities.  Sophia was late to her basketball practice, but luckily I was able to get back to her and Riley with 3 minutes to spare before the end of practice.  We were giving Riley a ride home that night.  Anyway....as soon as we got home Lilly immediately remembered where she had placed the keys and handed them over to Will.

The nickname we've given to Lilly is Bean.  So, as Will would put it, he got Beaned!
