Bad, Bad Toothfairy

For some reason the tooth fairy that has been assigned to our house is completely deflicted in a mental way sort of way! She CANNOT remember to bring Brooke her little goodies at night and then I have to scramble around in the morning to fix the whole debacle!!

For instance, this past Wednesday Brooke lost two teeth - yes two! One came out at school and one at church. The one lost at school is literally lost - at school. We wrote a note to the tooth fairy telling her to go look there and of course we still expected the compensation for the tooth. The 2nd tooth was saved by one of the other moms at church until she found me to give it to me. So that one we still have.

We came home Wed night and promptly put the tooth and the note in the tooth pillow that Grammy made. However, the tooth fairy did not bring anything for the two teeth, or so it seemed. Low and behold Brooke went down to breakfast and there sitting in her spot was a kid's scrapbooking kit. Apparently, our toothfairy is much too small and weak and could not carry that kit upstairs. Now, I think this whole scrapbooking kit (about a $10 value) was a little hefty a payment for two teeth and I just think the tooth fairy was feeling a little unprepared and guilty about not putting compensation IN the tooth pillow so she had to come to my closet and pull out something that had been stashed for maybe Christmas, lets say.

So, if any of you all have really good tooth fairies at your house would you please send them to TN!?! And by the way, our tooth fairy's spouse is NO help at all in reminding the tooth fairy of her duties!

LOL.. We have a terrible tooth fairy her too... Once, after a week of waiting, she left a note to apologize and explain that when its your 6th tooth lost you have to be patient and wait till she's visited all the first toothers, and that lately there were alot of first toothers to visit! LOL

Once our tooth fairy had to leave a cheap CD player along with a karoke CD because she had forgotten for a whole week! She ended up leaving a note herself explaining that she had been really busy collecting teeth over in China because she was ready to put an addition on her tooth castle and needed some extra teeth, so it took her a little longer to get all the way back over to NY.

I think the prepared tooth fairies usually have some sort of stash of little trinkets ready, but ours likes the excitement of scurrying around in a panic.

I cant believe the tooth fairy's spouse is so unreliable. He should be punished!
