I caught my grandmother placing her money under my pillow one night when she was visiting with my family and I decided that the tooth fairy was FAKE. She looked startled when I yelled "Gotcha, Ruby!!"
My husband asked me why he didn't receive money from under his pillow after losing four of his teeth, I told him that because he stopped believing in a tooth fairy, and he laughed.
P.S. Don't forget to send me your RL address as I am going to have a book to post you in Dec!!!!! Shhhh, haven't announced it on my blog yet...email me on djkirkby@gmail.com
Lantana-- Yes, I know, $2 for a tooth, but it was her front tooth so we thought it was worth it. Most people I know give $5!!
Karen-- I will make sure she doesn't see this, but I usually work on my blog at night, after the kids are in bed, so hopefully, she won't see this! :o)
Lisa-- I never caught my dad but I found years later, all my baby teeth in his jewelry box and finally figured out who the tooth fairy was!
Trapper-- Bet my woodpile isn't as big as yours! :o)
Dj-- It was fun writing it! :o) Looking forward to the book! Yay!
Ahh, the price of inflation! How cute, and what a lovely family tradition. And what beautiful blue eyes!
