It's out!

So Jeremy's tooth finally got so wiggly yesterday that I just pulled it out. I was surprised to see so little root on it, but Daddy said that's what happens, the adult tooth dissolves the root of the baby tooth and it falls out. I was skeptical but I looked it up and it's true! It's weird the random facts that one person accumulates over their life that someone else doesn't. Anyway, I digress. Daddy put the tooth in a baggy and had Jeremy put it under his pillow and he was very excited to see his dollar this morning. He said, "Wow!" and came to show me. Now we get to teach him about tithing! And he already has another loose tooth!Jeremy eating an apple on the side of his mouth so he wouldn't bother his loose tooth. It's finally out! Look what I got!

The sight of my little Jeremy missing a tooth brings tears to my eyes! He's so grown-up.

A dollar!!!????
Wow, the tooth fairy is sure generous these days. I should have put my tooth under my pillow awhile back, when I lost a tooth.

Jaime, I think you maybe got a dime for your first tooth.
Did you ever wonder what the tooth fairy looks like? Ever want to stay awake and find out? Did you ever discover NOTHING under your pillow (except the tooth that had fallen out) when you woke up the next morning. It happens!
Jeremy's growing up so fast. And his baby sister will be so lucky to have a big brother, to help take good care of her, as she is growing up.
