One time, I had to have been about 10, I lost a baby tooth.
Instead of running around with excitement showing everyone and losing my mind, I just sat quiet.
I wanted to know if the Tooth Fairy was real, so I didn't tell my mom I lost a tooth.
She was tucking me in and saw my tooth on the table by my bed and said,
"Honey, you have to tell me when you lose a tooth! You can't just leave it there!"
Boom. Instantly found out the Tooth Fairy was as fake as my enthusiasm for life.
