Out of the mouths of babes

Well, I've waited 4 years, I figure I'm entitled to one post of amusing things my daughter has said. This won't become a habit, I promise.

L - I don't believe in god, but I do believe in fairies. Fairies are real aren't they daddy?
Me - umm.
L - I know fairies are real, because there's the tooth fairy.

Checkmate. I did win one over Christmas though:

L - Even if I don't get anything from Father Christmas, I'll still get the presents under the tree won't I daddy?
Me - (thinking quickly) I think Father Christmas takes them to give to the good children.
L - (considers whether to cry)
Me - (quickly) but you've been a good girl haven't you? So I'm sure you'll get presents.
L - Oh yes.
