The Tooth Fairy

My 7 year old had lost her third tooth! She misplaced the tooth and so she wrote a note to the tooth fairy explaining what had happened. Well, that tooth fairy forgot to stop that night. At first she was a little upset but I explained that sometimes the tooth fairy just can't make it every where in one night. The following morning she wakes up and checks under her pillow and guess what....still nothing from that darn tooth fairy. Now she was just getting mad and so I explained that maybe the tooth fairy just forgot and that she should leave that note under her pillow for one more night!! The third morning she woke up, came down the stairs with the note in hand, tosses it on the table in front of me, and walks away rolling her eyes.......I had no explanation this time. I just couldn't believe that I had forgotten three nights in a row! So while my 7 year old was at school, my oldest daughter came home and reminded me that the tooth fairy still needed to leave something under her sisters pillow so she wrote the note for me. She kindly explained that the tooth fairy had been sick for three whole days but she was feeling better now so she was able to leave her some money!! How smart my 10 year old is!!!! So everyone was happy with the explanation from the tooth fairy and she was forgiven for taking so long. Well.....my 6 year old lost her tooth and placed it under her pillow last night and that darn tooth fairy forgot AGAIN!!!! Can you even believe that!! But the best part is my 7 year old says to her younger sister, "It's OK, but I hope that she isn't sick again!"
