Our house has the laziest tooth fairy that there ever was. I wish I could write in and complain, but I've no idea where to send the letter. The kids have taken to blaming me for her neglect and in addition, they want me to pay them for their teeth! This morning, I was cornered in the kitchen and interrogated. I was accused of impersonating a fairy! I guess they think that since I'm always forgetting things and the tooth fairy is always forgetting their teeth, that the tooth fairy and I must be the same person. I don't know what they think that I would want with all those teeth. Poor fairy, I don't mean to be insensitive, I know she must be terribly busy. Maybe she's not lazy at all, maybe she's just forgetful. I can relate to that. I probably should try to help her out, but I'm not very fond of getting up in the middle of the night, and what if I run into her? What would happen then? That's not likely to happen since she never comes, but if the kids catch me sneaking into their rooms, then they really will think I'm the tooth fairy. Then they'll accuse me of lying to them for all of these years. I'm going to have to find a way to catch that fairy and prove it to them once and for all. I don't know what I'll use for bait though, because apparently she doesn't like teeth.
Apparently we have the same tooth fairy :o) Isn't she just the most forgetful thing ever?
ReplyDeleteSo I have finally caught up on all your blogs. I feel so sad that I have missed them when they were hot off the press. You've made me want to cry. Then I have chuckled. And then I have been reminded of wanting my mommy to lay with me forever. And now I am totally cracking up again. Wow, I've gone through all the emotions I can for one 15 minute period of time. I can't wait until I have my internet figured out and then I too can cause all that emotion in just one sitting. Oh, I feel sad for the tooth fairy. Maybe she just on strike. The fairy union has united and decided they weren't being paid enough. You should tell the kids that. Maybe it would get them off your back. And then you can go into an educational moment and explain all about unions...
ReplyDeleteI think I'll let you explain it. I know nothing about unions. =)
ReplyDeleteA year or so ago we have started to get the same tooth fairy! hmm... This is a amazing picture.
