When I went upstairs early this morning to be the tooth-fairy, he had wiggled around so much that I couldn't find the bag with the tooth in it. About 15 minutes later he got up and said "dad! The tooth fairy didn't come."

I palmed a quarter and walked upstairs and said "Really? Let's see." I went and saw the cloth bag Andrea sewed up for him under his pillow and picked it up. He went to the bathroom and I quickly switched out the tooth and said "did you actually check in your bag?" He said "no..." -- I suggested he go ahead. He explained that he though the tooth fairy would take the whole bag and leave the money. Andrea kept up the ruse saying "I think she's seen lots of those kinds of bags and doesn't need anymore."

He seemed satisfied with that, even though he knows the tooth fairy isn't real. Sometimes it is just fun to pretend.

And next time I am definitely going to be more strategic about where the bag goes. ]]> http://thesimoneaus.com/2012/01/06/toothless/feed/ 3 http://thesimoneaus.com/2011/07/24/simhouse-v2-0/ http://thesimoneaus.com/2011/07/24/simhouse-v2-0/#comments Sun, 24 Jul 2011 22:49:59 +0000 Mark http://thesimoneaus.com/?p=4804

Love the Bathroom.  Turned out great.

This little cove really pops with the white contrast.

The kitchen with soon-to-be-destroyed tile.

The paint and the tile go really well together.

Even with new blinds, nice new paint, no cracks in the drywall and new tiles, we'll still always have cut up Cheerios boxes all over our house
