Tooth Fairies and Santas and Easter Bunnies, OH, MY!


 Santa will come to our house this year even though he isn't real.

~A few days ago we had this conversation~

Is the tooth fairy real?
What do you think?
Daddy says fairies aren't real.
Maybe he just never saw one.
I want to believe they are real. Are they?
We can play pretend, can't we? Stop asking if things are real for a while - Sheesh, Your taking all the magic out!
Ok.
I think we should make a pouch and put it in the window sill.
But what about under my pillow?
It'll get lost in your hair and she'll never find it! Besides, if she is flying by she'll see it in the window and know it's time.
Oh, yeah!


So, the tooth fairy will make a visit tonight, darn it! This child is sucking all the fun out of make believe!
I have to admire her quest for truth. I am the same way. But this sucks! Is it so bad to just make believe and be a kid?
