Nothing compares to that moment when your child comes walking into your room the morning after losing a tooth, looking absolutely and completely crushed. You might still be reveling in your surprisingly glorious slumber. Gosh, you slept so well last night. And then . . . oh sh*t. That's right. The tooth fairy totally forgot to come!
It happens to the best of us. Heck, Mother Teresa probably even forgot to fulfill her tooth-fairy duties at least once. So if you, like these parents (and myself), have woken up with the terrible feeling of having forgotten to make all your child's wildest dreams come true while they slept, then you'll totally relate to these awesome apology letters directly from the tooth fairy herself.
Santa: a useful pawn in the game of parenting anytime, anywhere.
I can only imagine the hilarity of this child telling all her friends about the fact that the tooth fairy uses tooth-sniffing dogs.
When in doubt, distract her with your ridiculously cool swirly tooth-fairy handwriting and a five-dollar silver coin from 1991.
" . . . and fairies are allergic to the sun." Yup, that ought to seal the deal.
What's a little white lie when you're passing out gold and silver?
