His tooth is no longer looth

Congratulations, precious son, on losing your first tooth. I can't believe it is already time.

It all happened last night. It had been hanging on by a thread for days, but he did not want it pulled. I can't blame him - they are way too much fun to wiggle and play with. We went out for dinner and checked on the tooth several times just to make sure it did not end up in his stomach with his jumbo sized hamburger. We returned home and realized, as he and Nicole were doing a puppet show, that the tooth was gone. Where? Who knows. Stomach. Parking lot. Van. Carpet. We began searching and finally I found it on the carpet directly in front of our framed print of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Thank you Jesus.

As we prepared for bed, we also made preparations for the Tooth Fairy to visit. I made him a tiny blue envelope for his tooth and it was carefully tucked under the pillow. She came. This little 5 year old has been very excited, as are we. It is amazing how time flies - especially when you are having fun! :)

I can't believe he lost a tooth already! Mine swears he has a loose one and just thinking about that makes me so sad. When did they get so big?
