tooth fairy

tooth fairy or no tooth fairy...that is the question. CO had one tooth pulled in the Spring and since I was on the fence about the tooth fairy, I just didn't mention it.  I don't know if I want to get in the habit of having to crawl around in the dark looking for a tooth under the pillow so I can leave some change...

Well that little tooth in the front is wiggly. CO has been asking if his tooth is ready to be pulled out for the last couple of weeks. I remind him that I don't pull teeth but that he can wiggle it to help it get ready to fall out. Today is was fairly wiggly and I told him that if he ate an apple that it would probably come out...so CO did...and the tooth I think got eaten with his bites of apple :)
So once again I dodged the tooth fairy bullet...
