Lost Tooth


One notable event that happened in October was that Elisabeth lost her first tooth. She literally lost it too. She bit into a cheerio, put her hand in her mouth to retrieve the lost tooth, held it up and then dropped it on the floor. We never have found it. Leilani looked diligently when she swept the floor that night, and we looked after she dropped the tooth, but it was nowhere to be found. But, my little girl has been so excited about losing her first tooth, that she never has mentioned that the tooth fairy didn't ever come (some people in my family think the fairy should have come anyway, but she didn't. Why would she leave money if there was no tooth?!)

The tooth fairy always comes for first tooth lost (even if its lost!) because it's magical to lose that first tooth and a momentous occasion for the losee.

Congratulations, Elizabeth! You are growing up fast. Watch out for those crunchy Cheerios!
