The Tooth Fairy...

The Tooth Fairy is now getting ready to take up residence at our home.....Faith lost her very first tooth last night (and has a second loose tooth getting looser by the minute)!!!!! Talk about excited! I was actually at Bunko last night when Faith and her daddy called to tell me her tooth FINALLY fell out! We have been eagerly awaiting this day for quite some time now...I can remember Faith asking me when she was 2 or 3 when she was going to lose a tooth! Well, the day is finally here, and Faith couldn't be happier! The Tooth Fairy did come last night (thank goodness she went by the bank yesterday to withdraw the funds), and left Faith $5. I think the Tooth Fairy gives a little more than she should, after all, it IS the VERY FIRST lost tooth, ya know?!?! Faith also got a letter from the TF telling her Congratulations on her very first lost tooth, and what a special girl she is! Faith couldn't wait to get to school today to show her teacher! On the other side, however, this is a bitter sweet moment for the Tooth Fairy....it seems as just yesterday those sweet little baby teeth were coming in!!! Faith start big girl school last week, and now has lost a tooth this week...this may be just too much for the Old Tooth Fairy to handle! :)

$5!! Wow! such a generous tooth fairy!! :) So funny! my 7 yr old lost a tooth the day before yesterday and the tooth fairy forgot to put the money under his pillow until ths morning. But he never gave up. So, how long do we drag this out??! I was asking my husband that this morning! I never drug that stuff out with my first 2! I guess pretty soon we need to let him in on it?! :) We dont do Santa Clause either. :) I know! I am a party pooper! :)

Topher thinks she looks beautiful with that tooth gone. I DO need to just show him the pictures, though, and not allow him to read, because he is now upstairs wiggling his tooth so he can get $5 to go shopping. Congratulations, Faith.
