My child lost their first tooth today.

I (being clever) got them to put it in an envelope under their pillow ready for the tooth fairy.

The tooth fairy tells me the envelope was empty but they left £2 anyway. Hopefully this is standard procedure. XD

My daughter lost her first tooth at age six. The next morning, I went in to wake her up and she found her $5 under the pillow, at which point she looked me directly in the eyes and asked, “Mom, are you the tooth fairy?” Uhhh….. I think I gave her the standard cop-out parental response (“What do you think?”) but the cat was out of the bag.

Mine has already suggested the tooth fairy is a myth. I think I said "people believe all sorts of things". 😅
