Anyway, I told her that the Tooth Fairy will give her a coin or a Ringgit note when she's asleep. I wrapped the tooth up in a tissue paper and asked her to put it under her pillow. From that moment up until the next day, she and Sherilyn asked me non-stop about the Tooth Fairy - who she is, when will she come, how much money will she give, why will she come, how many times will the Fairy give me money?, will the Fairy give me money if I purposely pull out my teeth (LOL!), etc, etc, etc.... they asked me these questions over and over again, aargh!!
I put a Ringgit note under Alycia's pillow when she was napping in the afternoon. When she woke up and checked under her pillow, she was overjoyed to see the note there. But I sort of got her into trouble. When Alycia woke up, I was inside my room feeding Baby. Alycia happily went to mah mah and announced that the Fairy gave her a Ringgit. My mil was stunned and said "ser mok Fairy, na ni you Fairy, sui tek chean? Mummy gei nee ar? Nee nar wor tek chean ar?" (what Fairy, where got Fairy, whose money? Mummy gave you the money? You took my money?) My mil was quite furious and thought that Alycia had created the story because lately the gals have always been asking us for money for their piggy banks. After interrogating and reprimanding Alycia for a while, my poor girl cried! I quickly got out of the room to clear the air but Alycia was sobbing uncontrollably. Haih, my fault. I should have also told my mil about the Tooth Fairy thingy!

Did Alycia leave a note for her tooth fairy? My eldest, Ashleigh, always leaves a little note for Belle (she named her tooth fairy!). So when we put the money under her pillow, we must remember to reply to the note. Quite a few times we forgot.. Alamak!
in my case, i got scolded by hubby for introducing tooth fairy to my girls! n then hor, their grandpa got his tooth pulled out, my eldest asked me whether she can hv kong-kong's tooth, so dat she can hv more money from the tooth fairy! lol.
never introduced tooth fairy to my girl..save the trouble.
Kesien Alycia, but it is good lesson for me to learn.
Charmaine... leaving notes? No lar, I didn't think of that too. Perhaps I shd ask her to the next time round!
Miche... OMG, your gals pulled koong koong's teeth out? How? When he was asleep?
oh dear...poor Aly got scolded. when i was a kid, i really wished there was a tooth fairy but she never came :(
usually at what age the baby (milk) teeth will start dropping??
She's so cute to pose the pic for u..n sticking her tongue there
One time, shortly after 9-11 in NYC, we forgot to leave some $ for my dtr's tooth. Of course she is upset. Then, hubby, to cover up his tracks, told her the tooth fairy's office was in the towers that went down. OMG!!! I was horrified! I know, it is funny, but in a macabre sort of way.
