A first.



Squísh is getting six, and
Robs lost her first! 

Steve checked to see how loose that little baby tooth was, 
and out it came.
Easy as pie.

She was elated. 

She can't wait to tell Ezra on the bus, 
Austin at school, 
and Sydney.. even though they aren't best of friends anymore. 

When we asked Robs what the tooth fairy gave for teeth these days...
She said thirty dollars. 

---------------------------------------

The last time I looked for the tooth fairy, 
I found my tooth still under my pillow. 

I went into my mom's room, where she was sound asleep, 
and shared the sad, sad news. 

She groggily directed me to the coin bucket...
and fell back to sleep.

It was the greatest day of my life. 
I chose nothing but quarters.

---------------------------------------

I'm thinking the tooth fairy will generously leave a dollar...

  2. I love your mom.

    That happened to me one year and my dad (brilliantly) confessed that fairy head quarters had sent a boy tooth fairy and when he arrived in the dead of night, dad thought he was a burglar and beat him up. He promised the lady tooth fairy would bring me something the following night.

    Being a parent rocks.
