Tooth Fairy

Yesterday my Granddaughter came home from school with a zip lock baggie in her back pack. She proudly announced that she had lost a tooth in school. She went to her bed immediately and put it under one of her many pillows on her bed. About 15 minutes she went back to check and was very disappointed to discover she still had a baggie with a tooth in it. We were able to remind her that the tooth fairy never comes in the daylight hours. We have also convinced her that on a few mornings when she still found the said tooth under her pillow that it was due to excessive traffic and the fairy was delayed and therefore could only come that next evening. Well at 1:30 this morning my daughter said the said granddaughter was awake rummaging through her many pillows trying to find her money. My daughter knew it was there because she had gotten a sighting on the said fairy. It took her several minutes to calm down from being upset at thinking she had been missed to finally discover she had indeed received her payment. She was very happy to find per her words that she had a "Lincoln" I sure don't remember being 9 years old and knowing a $5.00 bill was a Lincoln.
