This is a true story. Promise.
A teacher I work with has three daughters. The youngest is 10 and in the 4th grade. Just recently she had a talk with her mom about the Tooth Fairy. Yesterday, we were told the conversation they had...
Daughter: "Mom, are you really the Tooth Fairy?"
Mom: "Yes, dear."
{short pause while the daughter is thinking}
Daughter: "So, does this mean you are the Easter Bunny too?"
Mom: "Yes, dear..."
{Another pause...wheels are spinning in her head...thinking longer}
Daughter: (sounding a little disappointed) "Are you Santa Clause too?"
Mom: "Yes, Honey."
Daughter walked away disappointed now knowing that everything she believed in wasn't "real".
A few minutes later, the daughter walks back in the room after thinking again for one final question.
Daughter: "Mom, are you God?"
My coworker told us they had another conversation about this subject.
When I was told this story I could not stop laughing. Not only is it so funny, but bless her heart, she really thought about it! It was just too cute!!
Story of the year.
How adorable is that!
