The Tooth Fairy

So Braden is scared to death of weird things...the Chuck E Cheese mouse, clowns (terrified of clowns) and the Toothfairy. Kenna is 10 1/2 and has lost a lot of teeth. Brady will not sleep at all when he knows the Toothfairy is coming. He will lay in bed and sniffle and cry...scared to death. He ends up on our floor on these nights.

We have tried just not telling him she is coming, but he gets word of even a tooth wiggle and starts asking--every day--several times a day--if Kenna has lost her tooth and if the Toothfairy is coming.

Finally we wrote at letter to the Toothfairy asking her to come while the kids were in school. Good sleeping after that...(for all of us ;O)

Now imagine what little man is thinking since it is HIS tooth that is loose. Really loose. Hanging by a thread. And it is SUMMER!! Freak! When is she coming now? I think this is the only reason that thing is still in his mouth. You would think the thought of $5 would mellow him and get him excited. Nope. Sigh.

He told Marcus today that when his tooth falls out he is going to give it to McKenna and have Kenna keep it under her pillow. Then he is going to go to McKenna the next morning and ask for his money. No way is the Toothfairy coming in HIS room.

He kills me.

That is so sad things like that scare him. Do you have a cool hiding place outside? You could ask the toothfairy to leave it outside on by the back door or something. Thats pretty cool you were able to find a job and a bank thats nice. How much are you working? Your kids are cute as ever, love the soccer pics.

That is so cute. What a good idea to have the tooth fairy come during school. I think Brenda had a good idea. (If you can email her and ask her to send me an invite to her blog. Thanks)

I wonder what made him hate the tooth fairy? Cresta still hates clowns, I can see that, they can be scary... Maybe it's the thought of having it in the night while he is asleep, I like the outside suggestion, too, or under your pillow???
