Adventures with the Tooth Fairy.

Sarriah lost another tooth last week. Silly girl freaked out when it came out while she was brushing her teeth. :) So we put it in a baggie and placed it under her pillow....... or so I thought. When the tooth fairy came to take her tooth away and leave her money, there was no tooth to be found. That Tooth Fairy looked high and low but no tooth. The next morning Sarriah was so disappointed, I asked her where she had put her tooth because maybe the Tooth Fairy couldn't find it and she said she put it under her blanket at the foot of her bed. SILLY GIRL!!!! I told her it had to be under her pillow. She laughed and said she would. Round 2. Tooth Fairy comes the second night............. AGAIN no tooth. Not wanting to disappoint 2 nights in a row that clever Tooth Fairy left Mrs. Sarriah a letter(it even had glitter in it) along with her money asking her to please leave her tooth in a visible spot so she could pick it up the next night. Sarriah was thrilled(because she truly believes in all that is pretty and good in this crazy world). So as she was told she left her tooth out last night, but this time the Tooth Fairy got a surprise in return..... Sarriah left a note for the her.... along with a piece of her cookie she saved for her.

Sometimes kids can just touch you so deeply. It might be a funny little thing but it brought tears to my eyes. My daughter believes in the things we cant see. From the Tooth Fairy to the Holy Ghost. She has faith they are real. She believes them not because she has been told to or because she is afraid not to. She just believes. From the top of her head to the tip of her toes. I love her innocence. I am so lucky to have the worlds greatest little girl!!!!
