The Tooth Fairy Visits
(a few years ago the Baby Twinkies and I went bowling and we came up with nicknames for each other to use for our score cards. So I'm going to start using them now to differentiate between the two)
Big Mickey (the younger Baby Twinkie) lost his front tooth a few days ago. He was biting down on a taquito when he screamed, “HEY where’d it go? I swallowed it! OMG I swallowed my tooth, mom!”
Annequin (the older Baby Twinkie) looked down at his plate and said, “No, you didn’t! Look it’s right there, stuck on the taquito!”
We all laughed and Big Mickey rushed to the bathroom to clean himself up and look at his newly tooth free “look.”
That’s when Annequin took the opportunity to let me know he finally believed me about being the tooth fairy. He explained that he’d seen the Full House episode where one of the girls lost a tooth and got a dollar. Then the other girl lost a tooth and Danny Tanner accidentally left a $20 bill.
“So how much money are you gonna give him, mom?” Annequin (the older baby Twinkie) whispered to me when Big Mickey(the younger baby Twinkie) wasn’t within hearing range.
The thing is, I’ve always told the kids that I was the tooth fairy. I don’t really believe in all the lying, even if it is “magical” or a “rite of passage” whatever. But the kids refuse to believe me.
Now there is a turn of the cards, right? Usually it’s the parents convincing their kids that Santa is real and the tooth fairy won’t give you money if you don’t brush your teeth. Well, this year Annequin finally gets it.
But later when I asked Big Mickey to go to bed so that I could sneak the money under his pillow he said in a very frustrated voice, “MOM!! STOP SAYING THAT! You are NOT the tooth fairy. If you are the tooth fairy then let me see your wings!!”
I said, “I am NOT going to show you my wings. Now go to bed or I’m not gonna leave you ANY money!!”
He went off to bed, still unconvinced. And annoyed that I would think he was THAT gullible that he would believe that I was the tooth fairy. Hmmph! As if…..

Oh my God! You should clone your children. I would pay big bucks to have my own version of Big Mickey and Annequin. Seriously. You'd be rich.

I don't think you'd still want them after a weekend of questioning EVERY SINGLE little thing you said or did. hahaha... Sometimes I think they are just way too smart for their own good. posted by
