Not only did our girl turn 6 this year and start 1st grade, she has now lost her first tooth. We started this journey 6 months ago when the dentist told us that it was slightly loose. We couldn't even tell at that time that it had started to wiggle its way out of her mouth. Sunday night she was having a bed snack and bumped it so much that it hurt. She ate yogurt for breakfast because it still hurt. When I picked Lilah up from school that day she was less one tooth and it was ticked safely in her backpack in a small tooth treasure chest she received from the school nurse. Lilah recounted a story of eating a nugget at lunch and it just simply popping out into her mouth. She was very proud and excited for the tooth fairly to come. However, she did have one concern. She did not want the tooth fairy to take her tooth. We told her that she could write the tooth fairy a note and that she would allow Lilah to keep her tooth and still leave a reward for her bravery. So far no other teeth feel as though they are attempting to escape, but their time will come soon enough.
