H[i]i marketing,
Ohh..I know your friend will understand you! Just tell her what happen and for sure it's not a big deal!
You just call her to ask and there was nothing wrong with that, I know everyone will do that as their first reaction after searching the place and find nothing![/i]

I am sorry to hear that. Perhaps it's better for you to visit your friend in person. Meanwhile you buy her a little gift as a surprise to express your sorry feeling. You are serious to make an apology for her. I think she will forget it.
I love China

oh you need to tell her about this. people make mistakes.I'm sure your friend will understand.I find the whole story cute actually.. your toddler must have been helping you clean the house.. unfortunately, this thing happened.Just explain to your friend what happened.

things like these do happen! there's really no other way but to call her, appologize and mean it. if you can, ask her for a lunch or a dinner or a merienda together and you don't have to make mention of it anymore. i think by calling her and saying your sorry and being sincere about it, and if she's really a good friend, she would understand. but still treat her out. it doesn't have to be fancy, just the gesture, your the effort to reach out would send the signal that you are sorry. There's NO need to repeat saying you're sorry all over again. Cheers! =)

if i make a mistake to anybody, i just have to have a big heart and say sorry to the person directly... i know it is not easy and sometimes we are too proud to do that... but by saying sorry to the person that we make mistake with, we are showing the person how big our heart is and the person will respect us more as well... so i think just go to your friend directly, explain the real situation and say sorry... take care and have a nice day...

There are really things happening out of our control. It is not your fault nor your friend's. But since you seemd like feeling sorry for what happen, better say it straight to the point just like what you did. I say sorry casually. No more introductions or what so ever. And I make sure I mean it.

Gifts maybe a good start , Flowers may just do fine and a word of sorry will comes in place
Best wishes ;)

Well, the best thing you can do is to call her up and apologize.. you know, we all commit mistakes and i'm sure your friend would understand.. same thing happened to me few years back.. i've had to argue with the computer shop staff because i thought my cellphone was left there. when i came home, i found my phone inside my bag.. 
i've said sorry to the staff and to show how sorry i am, i gave them a box of chocolate cookies.. =)

That is really a meaningful story for all. We have to double check in the front, though it is against the face. In China, we have the saying, "Even between brothers, we need to have a clear accounting." The second thing is wait for a while, or swallow up, unless you intend to quit the friend.
The way out is to visit her in person, or ask her out for a tea chat, telling her about everything, more important is your feeling and lesson from it. Afterward, better to give greeting calls, and offer your kindness whenever in need of help. Time will be the cure. A real friend will stay your friend, with your persistent sincerity.

Just say that you are sorry and hope that she can forgive you. Maybe you can tell her how that you think your toddler throw it into the rubbish bin thinking it was a rubbish. The sooner you do it, the easier it become. If you don't do it soon, after a while, will become afraid to speak to your friend.

I think you just have to swallow your pride and call her and explain to her what was your conditions, and that stuff. Just say I'm Sorry
