I believed that fireflies were fairies. This belief became even more true for me after watching Ferngully, where all the fairies when they flew, left behind a colored glow. On top of that I never say a firefly up close so I never knew it was a bug until many years afterwards. So I stuck to my story for a good few years!

My best friend used to always tell me these weird stories, and I'd always believe them. For a long time we believed in the "SHOE FAIRY" - if you threw your shoe on the roof, the shoe fairy would come and bring it back down, so one day we tried it. The only thing that happened was we got in trouble for throwing our shoes on the roof.

When I still believed in the tooth fairy, I REALLY believed in her/him. I always put a glass of water by the bed when I lost a tooth, because the tooth fairy would die the water. My water was always blue, except one time it was green. My mom said that my fairy must be sick and so a different fairy had to substitute. I later learned that it was her that was dying the water, and that she had ran out of blue dye.

I also once lost a tooth at my mom's work, and I wrapped it in a tissue. But by the end of the night I couldn't find it, and I went home and wrote a note to the fairy explaining why I didn't have my tooth, but that I DID lose one and she would just have to take my word for it. She gave me two half dollars for being so honest!

My dad told me that the Snap Crackle and Pop elves hid behind the corner of my bowl when I was eating rice crispies. I kept moving the bowl around to catch them but then realized there were no corners. That's when I used a bowl with corners. Still no elves.

When I was in fourth grade, one of my friends thought that fertilizer pelets were leprecon eggs, and they would grow into leprecons. We also believed that the spraypainted gold gravel the teachers put out on the playground really was leprecon gold, and we were always dissapointed when our St. Patrick's day leprecon traps never caught anything.

I used to believe that the tooth fairy used teeeth as money, and I began to worry that if she got poor, she might steal all my teeth through the night.

I used to belive that fairies lived inside lavenders but they were so small you couldn't see them. And if a bee ever came near you they would give you 50pence under your pillow.

When I was in secand grade, my sister told me that the fireflys were faeries. Of course, I belived her. One day I caught one, and showed my sister. She told me it would put a curse on me. I got so scared I slept in my closet.

I used to believe there were little men with spoons inside nailpolish bottles stirring the nailpolish when you shake it. I couldn't wait until my mom got to the end of the bottle so I could try to let them out to play

I used to think that there were magic fairies all around. and I would make fairie food for them so they would be happy with me. The food consisted of a large leaf, grass, flower pettals, and bird berrys all rolled up.

I beleived that I had some elves in the backyard thatvisited my sandbox. I would bring them food, clothing, fabric peices and build sand castles for them. They lived beyond a hole in our wooden fence in a dark wooded area in a large hole in the trunk of a tree. i drew pictures of their under the tree homes and came up with lots of ideas for what they were doing and how they survived. And I never saw them , but talked to them all the time. =)

I had always wondered if a secret civilazation of elves liveing under the couch.
Then I found out elves live in the forest and fairies live under the couch.

I know your under there!

When I was six, I lost my first baby tooth. I decided that it would only be polite to write a letter to the tooth fairy. I said that because my tooth was in such good condition, I deserved more money than the average kid. I asked for $14 because $13 was too little and $15 was too much.

I also had a big tree in my back yard with a door shaped "knot" at the bottom. I was positive a colony of naked elves lived in the tree and my best friend convinced me that we should lay my barbie clothes outside the tree for them so they wouldn't catch cold.
I spent the day finding my best and warmest barbie clothes and much to my happiness and surprise, the clothes were gone the next morning! I bragged to my friend that they had enjoyed our gift.
It wasn't until a month later that my friend confessed that she had taken the clothes! I was so mad.

When i was little i used to belive that there were little invisible fairies on top of the street lights. I thought the fairies would choose the group w/ more cars and let them go. however one day we got a "mean" fairies. our lane had many more cars and he let the oher lane go. so i started crying. Our light turned green and my mom started to go i was still crying getting ever louder. my mom was trying to look at me in the back seat in her rear view miror, and wasnt watching her speed. well a cop pulled her overe and gave her a ticket.

When i was little i used to belive that the tooth fairy and my mom were best friends all b\c of a little white lie she told me. I used to always smell the money that the tooth fairy gave me and it always smelled like my mom. so when day i asked her " mom, why does the tooth fairy smell like you" and she reponded" b/c she came to me and asked me what perfume i wore, so since i knew she liked it i told santa to get it for her". boy, didnt i think i was the coolest girl. my mom was friends with santa and the tooth fairy.
