Cian lost his front tooth on the weekend and put a note under his pillow for the tooth fairy. In the morning I had forgotten that the tooth fairy came in the night and brought him a loonie and four quarters (our tooth fairy is clearly a frugal Mennonite). He runs out of the room with his coins and proclaims "MOM, I HAVE MONEY!" and without a thought or hesitation "I'M GOING TO BUY EMMY A CAR!" How does that not melt your heart?
I told him the tooth fairy had brought that money for him and that he could spend it on himself but he wanted to buy a car for his sister so Keith took him to the store and luckily Hot Wheels were on sale for $1 each so Keith convinced him to get one for Em and one for himself and he would cover the taxes.
What a great kid - so proud to be his mom.
