Eddie’s 6-year-old son had a big milestone, he lost a tooth!
Excited, he slipped it under his pillow and went to sleep, ready for the Tooth Fairy’s visit. Sure enough, the next morning he found money waiting for him… but there was a problem. The tooth was still there. Turns out, the Tooth Fairy had to send an assistant this time, and the assistant forgot an important part of the job. Eddie’s son was thrilled about the money at first, but quickly noticed that the tooth hadn’t been taken. The mistake left Eddie wondering how to handle it.
Bobby suggested letting his son put the tooth back under the pillow to see if the Tooth Fairy might return with more money. Amy had another creative idea: make it a magical moment by flushing the tooth down the toilet, explaining that it would travel through the pipes to the Tooth Fairy herself. The tricky part? The assistant had already left more money than usual, simply because there wasn’t any change, so a second payout wasn’t in the cards. In the end, Eddie thought maybe it could be turned into a teaching moment: not even the Tooth Fairy is perfect, and mistakes happen.
