Someone woke up terribly disappointed at 5 am the day after to find that the tooth fairy forgot! Mom assured him that maybe he just hadn’t given her enough time and that he needed to put that tooth back under his pillow and go BACK to sleep (good luck there mom!) Mom dug around for Dad’s wallet in the dark morning hours to see if he had any cash…she certainly did not. And then waited for the disappointed little darling to go the bathroom, or otherwise leave the tooth unattended. Luckily crying out for Mom at 5 am was not enough and at 6 he cried out for Dad to tell him the horrible news. While he was telling Dad of his tooth fairy woes mom gave the small lecture about not being patient and giving the little fairy a chance...all the while with her hand under his pillow, already the money in place. When he had finally put the tooth back, a quick slide of hand and the deed was done! Mom and Dad barely had gotten back into their room when, “Oh my Gosh! Mom it’s crazy! No wonder I didn’t see her …she’s a ghost!” Thank heavens for little miracles that preserve our youth, innocence, fun…and the
tooth fairy!
