There is no tooth fairy

I don't claim to have a normal house.  We don't strive to be different, but normal just doesn't always happen in our place.

One such oddity is the tooth fairy.  Our kids don't believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, or Halloween...but the tooth fairy is another matter.  You don't just mess with the tooth fairy.

This has now come to a head with our six year old Lily loosing teeth faster than an old school hockey player at a triple header.  She just lost one tooth yesterday, and three others are currently loose and ready to go at any time.  Should make for a fun Christmas this year.

Now combine that with two parents that are a bit frazzled right now.  The wife is due in a month, and dad is busy dealing with mom being due in a month -- plus Thanksgiving, plus Christmas (minus Santa Claus) -- the Tooth Fairy has fallen behind in its duties.

At this point, Lily figured it out.  Luckily she is a good sport, and still willing to play along.  For the third night in a row, her tooth will be in a zip lock bag, underneath her pillow.

Hopefully the tooth fairy doesn't need further directions than that.
