The story of how social media helped this 3 y/o’s fairy tale come true is awesome and inspiring

On Sunday night I went to the fairy door to set up the dell. When I opened it I found this! Julie and her husband Paul had already cleaned it out and added little slices of tree stump, tree bark and some pretty flowers. How gorgeous is that! #fairystory pic.twitter.com/fLfy4BIEmA

I added all my bits and pieces – some fairy dolls and their pets a hedgehog, squirrel and frog. Some bunting. Some fairy wings and wand, and a letter to Rachel from the Queen of the Fairies #fairystory pic.twitter.com/47UqeucGKl

This morning, we walked to nursery as normal@ as we approached the door I realised Susie, the lady who put me in touch with the owner, was waiting across the road phone in hand. She’d come to take photos of us opening the door! #fairystory

Which meant I could concentrate on Rachel rather than trying to juggle my phone to take pictures. (Susie is one of my new favourite people) #fairystory

We got to the door and Rachel noticed the lock. I told her the Fairy Queen had sent me the key and we could open it up. #fairystory pic.twitter.com/5AeZYWysiT

I went and met Julie, the owner of the house to say thank you very much for letting us use her cupboard. And the lovely Susie sent me all the photos. #fairystory

And that is the tale of how a cupboard and social media made magic happen for my three year old daughter, Rachel (end of thread) #fairystory pic.twitter.com/O7guashHPB
