More Tooth Excitement
Emily just lost her second tooth. A second tooth isn’t usually a big deal, but it turned out to be a bit of an event. Her tooth had gotten so loose that it could twist and bend in every direction. It was kind of a mystery that it was still hanging on. We were getting a little tired of her minute by minute updates on its wiggliness. Finally, Nate said “do you want a pair of pliers and you can just pull it out?” To our surprise, she said yes. She took the pliers into our closet to look in the mirror and came out holding her tooth. Ben, not wanting to miss out on a tooth fairy visit, started begging us to give him the pliers. He has a barely loose tooth, but he was pretty sure he should pull it tonight. What a kid won’t do for a dollar and a few pieces of candy!UPDATE: The tooth fairy found this cute little thank you note folded up under Emily’s pillow next to her tooth. She is a sweet girl. Nate and I got a big kick out of the fact that she drew a little diagram to show which tooth it was.

I'm way impressed she pulled it out on her own! BTW I forgot to tell you that I love the family picture in your fourth of July clothes!
If I remember right, the tooth fairy visit at your house is a big deal...not just a dollar and few pieces of candy. I might be tempted to pull out one of mine if I were there too (especially for the candy...is it crunchy?)
