I think my daughter can see fairies - funny little conversation I had with her

[Dawn1976]

My daughter has seen tinkerbell and I realize that tinkerbell is a myth. But, she did ask me if fairies were real, and I told her yes (she is 6yrs old) and I told her that they help take care of plants and trees and nature. I also mentioned that they don't look like what she saw in the movie. I really don't know much about them myself, so I kept it real basic.

So fast forward about a month or so. Today my kids and I are walking in the parking lot at a store. There was some very small bushes surrounded my mulch and the kids were walking on the mulch. I reminded them to be careful not to step in the little bushes, and my daughter says to her brother "oh, look out for the angel fairies." I was like 'what?' So I asked her where are the angel fairies? She said they were in the bushes.

Me: what did they look like?
Daughter: um, I don't know I didn't see them really well
Me: did anyone step on them?
Daughter: no they just flew away.
Me: you didn't tell me you can see angel fairies. Where else did you see them?
daughter: they live in the bushes at the place where I got my bloodwork.
Me: WHAT? At labcorp?
Daughter: yeah, in the bushes at labcorp.
Me: so you saw them when we went into labcorp?
Daughter: no, when we left labcorp and we were walking back to the car I saw them in the bushes
me: what did they look like?
daughter:they had different colors around their faces

At this point she was tired about talking about them so I didn't press the issue.

I think it's really neat. She just never mentioned it to me at all. I wonder since I told her they were real she can now see them. Funny how she calls them 'angel fairies' though.

Lovely! My daughter described elementals to me when she was about 8 years old... she still sees them.

It's exciting to me. To be able to cultivate my kids talents as they grow.

Enya that is beautiful your daughter saw them too. Maybe one day I will too.

I can remember looking at photos someone posted here that showed fairies in and around plants and flowers. It was amazing. So I have no doubt that she can see them.

It's great when we can learn from kids.

I would love to see them. I told my daughter to let me know when she sees them again.

When I was little I use to see them. Now... Not so much :/
