age of innocence

Madeline still believes in the tooth fairy. Tonight she lost her first big molar. She wrote the following note to the tooth fairy:

Dear Tooth Fairy,

I was wondering if I could keep my first real molar. I was also wondering if you are a different tooth fairy now that I am in London?

Cheers,
Madeline

She’s almost 9. She’s going to go to school tomorrow and brag about this. What are the odds that she finds out the truth the hard way?

Meanwhile, isn’t it funny that she said “Cheers”?

So what do you think? Should we break it to her gently tomorrow morning OR should we let all the sophisticated English kids break it to her? Maybe all the kids in her class still believe.
