The tooth fairy cometh…


Mind the gap!





It’s a magical sight to behold.



  1. Michelle, this is not a ‘first tooth story’ but my youngest just unexpectedly lost her second tooth at school. We weren’t prepared! All I Had in my wallet was a $20 and $10. So I dug into my old piggy bank from when I was a kid and tucked under her pillow a Bi Centennial Silver dollar (1976) and a Millennium gold dollar. So I was quite surprised to hear her say after school the next day she got $7 from the tooth fairy. Someone actually slipped a $5.00 under her pillow too. Supposedly mom didn’t have any money either. So where did that $5 come from? It either was her 8 year old sister (who might have actually figured out the tooth fairly thing already) or the actual tooth fairy herself.I dunno. Can you imagine an 8 year old giving a $5 to a kid sibling? A $5 is a lot of money to an 8 yr old. So i still don’t know and she isn’t saying anything. But that is the kind of child her older sister is. Moral of the story, always have spare ‘tooth fairly money’ laying around the house so you don’t have to rely on one of your perceptive kids to step in. Congrats on her winning smile Michelle!


  2. Woah! What a great story! Sibling love is a beautiful thing, and a testament to great parenting! And, note taken…’tooth fairy money’ is now officially on-hand – thank goodness because the 2nd tooth came out a couple of days ago!!!
