Santa Meets the Tooth Fairy/Yo! Mama’s World

Yo! Mama’s World is more than a blog site. It’s a place to share our thoughts, feelings, and reduce stress. Since there is no how-to guide for parenting or life’s choices, WE might as well create one. I hope to leave you with thoughts of joy, laughter, moments of “oh no she didn’t say that”, “OMG”, & “that happened to me too” as we reflect on the comical moments of parenthood, motherhood, and growing up. Santa Meets the Tooth Fairy is an amazingly, fun story that originates at the North Pole with a little fairy named Tairy. Tairy started her career as an elf at the North Pole. Working there, she never had the chance to meet Santa Claus, but that’s all about to change. When Tairy gets promoted to Tooth Fairy, she soon finds herself on a Christmas Eve mission. Coincidentally, Tairy and Santa arrive at the house of a child, named Miles, at the same time! Miles is grateful for his reward from the tooth fairy and his gifts from Santa, but he soon discovers something unusual. For a closer look into the book, characters, and cool fairy gifts, I welcome you to visit www.yomamasworld.com/santameets.
