then, the very next night, he lost the second.
SERIOUSLY, could he be ANY cuter????????
Here is how it looked after losing the first one.
RIDICULOUS! it was JUST hanging there.
However; he got out the first one himself, and he didn't want me to touch the second...
He couldn't eat, because it hurt as he would hit it when he chewed...and I just couldn't stand it.
So after joking with him all day, I told him to go get the floss so I could show him how easy it would be to get out.
He got it, and I TRULY wasn't going to pull it, I was going to let him do it...
I was just going to loop in on the part that had detached...but I tightened the floss and he pull away...all at the right moment, and it just fell right out.
So we went to work and made the tooth fairy a welcoming sign.
Tyler was concerned that she wouldn't like to have to come and give him money TWO DAYS in a row.
So......He wrote her an ADORABLE letter with a picture, and I drew on the driveway.
We thought it "might light her way and make it easier to find us"
He told me, verbatim, what to write! And he signed his own name.
He was so proud of himself...
He knew he looked adorable....
Plus...the kid LOVES money...so he was all over that part of it!
Time goes so fast! In just a few weeks, my little boy turns SEVEN! S-E-V-E-N!!!
How DID that happen???
I adore the look of a child when they have lost those front teeth...there is just NOTHING cuter...but to me, that is the end of the baby or little kid look. After those big front teeth grow in...they just attain that "older" look. It changes their face, and they cross that threshold into "big kid".
Really, don't know how that has happened.
Seems like just yesterday he was holding on to things to stand up...or needed training wheels...or started preschool.
How is he about to finish first grade? About to turn 7?
Oh, but that smile with no teeth???? I would take that any day!
