2 days later when she lost the other one we did the exact same thing again! We are so totally up for nomination for the lamest-parents-on-earth award. Good grief. So this time Julia comes up and says, "I know the tooth fairy has until 7 am to get here so I'll just go check after 7." "Yeah!", I say as I wink at Lowell and he sneaks off again. Well this time Piper followed him and caught him mid act: pillow in one hand, money in the other, guilty look on his face-the whole bit.
Not one to think up lies at the drop of a hat like yours truly he just looked at her and said, "Ummmm......Don't tell Julia" I say he gave up too easily but she took it well and feels like she's in on a big secret now. She did however tell Julia that the tooth fairy was male, had a mustache and a beard and glasses. Hmmmm....good one Piper. So now Julia insists on calling it the Tooth Elf and has a pretty good idea of what's going on.
I guess I'm a little sad/mad at myself that this little secret got out. My mom was much better at keeping these important parental secrets than I. She still insists that the Santa that visited me as a 3 year old was the one and only. Oh well right?

If you hadn't put the disclaimer above the picture I totally would have thought that was Lowell!!
You know its Lowell..when did he get his tat? This is coming over to my blog in a few days, OK? So cute! Has to be in the blog book. Check out your sister blog today for a crack up...once again from Rossie!
By the way...good one Piper! Geesh!
We've forgot too. Leah totally doesn't believe in any of the "people". I was such a naive child, I believed for an insanely long time.
That picture is hysterical, and bears some semblance to Lowell. How funny. My Brandon is like Piper, luckily Ethan is a touch more "gullible" if you can call it that.
Great picture of Lowell...I did not know he had a tattoo
