Now I can’t get the REM song “Losing My Religion” out of my head.

SO sad, and the moment of revelation quickly approaches in our house as well. It’s my eldest (7yo) who won’t give up the ghost. My youngest doesn’t really believe anymore, but graciously accepts all tokens and gifts.

Our kids think that presents are delivered by some guy in a beat up old van w/no windows, and if they happen to catch him in the act he will take them in exchange for the gifts and sell them to a carnival.

We worship a different God than the rest of you.

This is just brilliant. Heart-breaking, but brilliant.

First time reader and commenter just blog hopping and happily landing here. Brilliant post – and you look like a Kennedy Onassis based my quick scroll down.

Though you have a staggering number of comments I feel compelled to add mine because JUST THIS MORNING my 7 year old busted me on being the tooth fairy. I told him that me, as his mom, was my secret identity and that I am actually the tooth fairy. He said he “knew it” and wanted to know what I had done with his tooth. He reclaimed it, or tried to. I said he had the money and I was keeping the tooth. I told him not to tell his sister about my secret life. Fat chance. Cheers.

Mrs. K,

I still think of your note to Jack re running off w/Jackson (I think we can make it work!) Have you thought of a career in fake letter writing? Thanks for the laugh.

Dear eldest son (6),

I appreciate that the exciting revelation of the non-existence of santa, the easter bunny (or bells - half French) and the tooth fairy (or tooth mouse) has caused a total paradigm shift in your universe. In my favour. And for this I am grateful.
I would however be even more grateful if you could refrain from stage whispering The Truth to me at all opportunities in front of younger son (4).

Yours,

Your mother

(ps remember I give the presents so you better listen)
