After a very late night last night we took things very easy this morning. We baked some white chocolate chips cookies and our plan was to take the bus to Dennery to eat there at the local fish festival in the afternoon. Ryan came over and wanted to join us on the trip, but somehow we were really comfortable talking about all sorts of staff and the beer and the white chocolate cookies were so delicious that we did not feel the urgent need to drive over to Dennery and therefore stayed home and enjoyed our own company and Ryan taught Julia and Carlos a few new strategies in Chess. Carlos had lost his tooth a couple of
days ago and every night he had put his tooth underneath the pillow hopeful that the toothfairy would come and leave a couple of dollars underneath his pillow and return his tooth back to the stars into the universe. Somehow the toothfairy did not make it the first night and even not the second night. He was very dissapointed and after I failed to find another excuse why she had not turned up the third night. He wanted to know the truth about the tooth fairy. He had already given up to believe in Santa Claus, but the toothfairy was until now still quite real. I looked into his eyes and decided to tell them that I have been the tooth fairy and that I have been collecting their
teeth over the years and that I have kept all theirs teeth in a little wooden box. Their eyes widened with a big smile and they wanted to see the evidence to fully believe me. It was so funny to see their surprise when I came up with the evidence and how excited they were to see all their teeth that they have lost over the years. Julia has lost 18 and Carlos has lost 12.....so now Carlos next concern was that he won't be able to make any more money by loosing his teeth!!!!! He is so funny and smart....however I suggested that I could still give him a couple of dollars for each tooth that he looses and he had a big smile on his face. However it seems to me that my little kids are growing up and that there will be no more secrets and magic about Santa Claus and the tooth fairy...so now is the time to find other magic and things to wonder about.
