Aru and the Tooth fairy!!

Heard Aru cry bitterly in the morn after seeing the gift Tooth fairy had kept under the pillow in place of her tooth. 
Me - "Why are you crying sweetie ? You got a lovely gift. " 
Aru - "I don't want this silly box of crayons. I had wished for something else". At our times even an eclair was welcomed 'n' now crayons r also scorned upon 
Me - "So what did you wish for? " hoping to place that when she would lose her 2nd tooth.
Aru - "Samsung galaxy III.Like you have. " oooooops
Me - "Darling that's smaller than this crayon box.. Bigger the better" trying to convince a kid  
Aru wiping her tears - "Okay if that's the case then next time I need an ipad". 
Oh God!!!!! An ipad for a tooth. I'll turn a pauper by the time she loses all her milk teeth  
Me - "Oh no no Aru. Ipad is heavy n tooth fairies are small n delicate like our teeth. They can carry only light gifts like crayon boxes." This time I had a strong point Felt like patting my back for the logic I gave. 
Aru paused for a while. Me grinning to have finally convinced her.
Aru - "As tooth fairies cannot carry heavy gifts," 
I nodded in agreement n victory, 
" let them place the order online n get it delivered. No problem I'll wait  ".
