Hanna was just talking about my tooth fairy story and then last night Apoa announced that she too had been experimenting with the tooth fairy.

Both our kids have now tried the experiment of removing a tooth, putting it under the pillow and not telling anyone.

Strangely, the fairy doesn't seem to come under such circumstances.

The latest incident involves Apoa removing a tooth on Saturday and secretly stashing it. After four nights, there's still no sign of the fairy, which Apoa thinks is pretty strong evidence. Being a good scientist, of course, she realises that this is not totally conclusive. But we're not sure what should happen next, especially since the playground is now buzzing with discussion of this latest piece of research....
