“I’ve never seen any cleaning company as professional as the Professional Maids. They come in a company car with ‘Professional Maids’ right on the side. Sometimes I’m at home and other times I go to my husband’s office, but the maids always clean thoroughly without getting in my way and lock up when they’re done. I’ve been very happy with the level of cleaning they do each and every time...and last time they even washed the few dishes I’d left in the sink!”
“I hear a lot of tales of crazy tooth fairy math skills,” continues Dr. Khan, “I know one tooth fairy who thought each tooth was worth the same as the age of the child who lost it. That wasn’t too expensive when the first teeth came out, because most kids lose their front teeth when they’re five or six. But the canines and back molars come out when kids are ten or even twelve…even a tooth fairy who doesn’t know multiplication knows those teeth get pricey really fast! I tell all the tooth fairies that if the math’s too tricky, you can always give a little toy or a good book instead.”
