‘I’m sorry if this is hard for you’: Little girl breaks tough news to parents

Awwwwww.

‘I’m sorry if this is hard for you’: Little girl breaks tough news to parents

Posted 8:53 pm, October 18, 2015, by Web Staff



A little girl broke some hard news to her parents in a heartfelt letter that was recently posted to Reddit.com.

Nine-year-old Lexi reportedly wrote a letter to her parents that she no longer believes in the tooth fairy and that she knows who it really is.

The letter reads:

Dear “Tooth Fairy,”

I don’t believe in the tooth fairy any more. I know it’s you who gets the money and puts it under my pillow, mom and dad. I’m sorry if this is hard for you, but I’m 9 now. (P.S.) I don’t believe in Santa Claus either.

Love, Lexi

P.S. Daddy, I knew it was you last Easter, hiding my Easter eggs!

Lexi’s father posted it online after finding it under her pillow.

She had already figured it out, "Santa Claus makes no sense at all" she told us. The Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny were on her kill list immediately after.

I had to tell her how babies were really born a year later.

My mother said she was an old lady in a child's body. She was.

because of the whole Santa mine field. The fact that the North Pole is in an ocean was too disillusioning for the lying parents to deal with.

When my youngest son was seven, he came to me bleeding after he'd lost a tooth and told me that he was going to stick it under his pillow. When I checked his pillow that night, I found a note that said, "Tooth fairy, come back tomorrow for the tooth." I was puzzled and asked my son "what the tooth fairy left" the following morning. He gave me a guilty look and said that he'd lost the tooth, but that he knew where it was and was going to try again.

The next night I walked into his room, slid my hand under the pillow, and found another note. It said: "Tooth fairy, I swolled my tooth, but I poopt it out. Its gross, but its in the paper bag by the door. Plese dont tell my mom."

There was a stinky tooth in the bag. I gave him twenty bucks for it.
