My Baby Lost A Tooth!

B (age 6) has been so sad that everyone else in her first grade class has lost a tooth but her. So imagine her excitement when she realized she finally had a loose tooth on the last day of school before winter break. Sure enough, with lots and lots of wiggling, the tooth came out on 12/26! Ironically enough, 6 years ago, on Christmas of 2001, when B was 6 months old, that was the first tooth that had come in. We had all joked that she got her first tooth for Christmas! Now she lost her first tooth for Christmas.

Being the sentimental girl that she is, B decided that she wanted to forego the Tooth Fairy's visit so that she could keep her tooth. She couldn't bear the thought of the TF taking it away forever. Daddy came up with a great idea! He sat down with B and they wrote a note to the TF, telling her to please leave the tooth. Sure enough, TF did come, and she left the tooth AND $5!
