Finally...A lost tooth


We had another big event this weekend. Sophie would be mortified if I did not mention that she lost her first tooth. She has been waiting for this moment for at least 2 years. She noticed that it was loose on our vacation to San Diego. Maxton also noticed he had a loose tooth at that time. He has long since lost that tooth and she has been so upset about that. Since she is older than Max, she should have lost her tooth first. Sophie came into my bedroom on Saturday morning and asked me if I would help her wiggle her tooth, this is an almost everyday ritual for us. I noticed it was a little looser, so, I just yanked, and out it came. She was soooo excited. She put it under her pillow and the Tooth Fairy gave her $1.00.

Later that day, Connor came up to me and informed me that the Nail Fairy gives money to little kids that put finger nails under their pillows. This was news to me. I have never heard of the Nail Fairy. I'm thinking that my kids are hard up for money. What do you think?

Hi Ash!
That's so exciting that Sophie lost her first tooth! I can't believe she's that big already. I hope all is well with you and that Emma is feeling all the way better!
