Molly Lost Her Firsth Tooth

Big moment at our house...Molly lost her first tooth! Yes, she is 7 1/2 but she is just now finally losing teeth! She pulled it all by herself when she got home from school, with Todd and Brett cheering her on. The only problem was that she doesn't like the idea of the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, etc. coming into her house while she is asleep. So, she left her tooth pillow and note to the Tooth Fairy on the coffee table in the living room so the Tooth Fairy wouldn't have to go into Molly's room. Well, it worked just fine and Molly was so excited that the Tooth Fairy left her a dollar bill that "didn't have any wrinkles" (it was brand new)! The sad part is that the tooth was in a plastic bag and somehow it ended up on her bedroom floor (she says she was looking at it). Well, her mom the compulsive cleaner, apparently picked up the plastic bag not noticing the teeny teeny tiny little tooth in the corner and threw it away. So, I feel horrible but I think we've learned our lesson about putting lost teeth in the tooth box and not leaving them in plastic bags on the bedroom floor!

Here is a picture of the very proud toothless girl!
