...and getting too smart.

My daughter, who is 9 going on 15, lost a tooth yesterday. She announces at lunch that she doesn't believe in the tooth fairy any more. My wife and I tell her she won't come if you don't believe in her. My daughter thinks a second and says she is going to try and trick the tooth fairy

. We could never get out of her how though.

Last night when she went to bed, my wife asked her where her tooth was. My daughter told us that she put it in a cup on her night stand.(Easy for the "tooth fairy to get to.

)

So when my wife and I went to bed, it was my turn to be the tooth fairy. I sneak in her bedroom, take the cup, lay the money down on the night stand and realize there is no tooth in the cup-the little stinker hid the tooth somewhere else. I was not about to start digging under her pillow, so I took the money back and put the cup back on her night stand and beat it out of there.

My wife didn't want to search either when I told her about it. We decided not to giver her the money and see what she says in the morning. My wife will probably tell her the tooth fairy couldn't find the tooth or something.

I went to work before everyone was up this morning, so I don't know how things have turned out. I'm going to try and call her later.

I told my wife that this will probably open the door to not believing in Santa and the Easter bunny. We think my daughter is putting 2 and 2 together with Santa, although she was still pretty excited this past Christmas.
Just one more thing of childhood being lost.
