Well I would first like to say thank you for all the suggestions. I also wanna say wow and sorry for the problems in Florida. I can't believe there are people that would screw with your family because you don't have the same views in America.
I guess it really wasn't a question of how but if I should start talking to her. Maybe how. The big problem for me is I really don't want to take her childhood and imagination away before she is ready. I kinda feel that if I get serious about what's real and what's fake then she will start to question things like Santa, the Easter bunny and so on. I do realize that those are based on religious holidays but for me and my children they are no better than hallmark holidays. We do celebrate those holidays in my house for one because of tradition and I wasn't always an atheist. We also continue because of my kids.
I'm not sure if my daughter really still believes in the tooth fairy but I don't want to tell her, I want her to come to her own conclusions about those types of things.
This is more or less my dilemma. Am I deluded? Lol
