Average Jane and the Tooth Fairy

Written by

Don’t be jealous, but the Tooth Fairy and I are *this* close. I still have this note that she left under my pillow (click to enlarge, or as Mac would say, "embiggen"):

I don’t know how old I was when I wrote this letter to the Tooth Fairy asking her to draw a picture of herself, but it’s been folded up in my baby book ever since. Why is the paper all crinkly? Well, it’s because it’s written on a Kleenex.

I though it was very accommodating of the Tooth Fairy to take the time to draw the picture (with wand!) and still leave me a quarter or whatever the going rate for teeth was at the time. She couldn’t resist hassling me about my dental hygiene, but I suppose you can’t blame her.

She had a point. I’ve seen your teeth! SO JOKING.
VERY cute. Stuff like that? Priceless.

Now if that isn’t one of the cutest things….what a treasure. No doubt about it…you and T.F. were close.

I love the “with wand” addendum. Otherwise, how could you be sure it was really her?

I loved the tooth fairy letter on a Kleenex. I recognized Linda’s
drawing style immediately. Did you really believe in the tooth fairy? The consensus here was that no one here ever really believed in one. BZH
