tonight my little girl lost (?) her first tooth. My husband would argue the lost part as I kinda helped it out. it has been loose for over a week and after only 24 hours of watching it wiggle as she spoke and it jutting out 45 degrees from its normal position, i couldn't help myself and gave it a little tug. It is now safely in her tooth fairy jar awaiting the arrival of the magical girl who truly struggled to decide what amount a first tooth goes for these days...
She seems older already. It frightens me that a 4 and 1/2 year old can loose a tooth already. So many changes taking place all too quickly for my liking. Today we dropped off her enrolment form for school, then she rode her bike without training wheels this afternoon, and now a tooth...lordy..next she'll be engaged! Its been a big day for this jetlagged girl so I am heading to bed..just after I work my magic and sprinkle some glitter.....shhhh......
wow! Lucy looks so cute with that tooth missing. Is that early? I'm still waiting for Seth's to fall out and there's no sign of wobbliness...and he's 5.5.
Glad you made it home safely...Lis.

How wonderful that you were home in time to experience Lucy 'loosing' her first tooth!!! Wish I still got visits from the Tooth Fairy..............I could sure use the extra cash lol.
Your trip sounds amazing & so worthwhile. Glad you're back, safe & sound.

Wow. Exciting. I feel your pain. Boyd starts orientation next week and it only just seems like yesterday that he was still in nappies. Welcome back, are you missing the pizza?
