Sunday morning...at 4am, Emma came into my room and said, "Mommy, I loosed a tooth." And held it up to me. I was obviously surprised, but Ada has already lost 2 teeth, so I figured she was 5, so it was starting. Then I checked her mouth, and realized it was a crown. They told us it was supposed to come out when she lost her baby teeth, but the baby tooth is still there...and looks gross I might add. I asked if it had been wiggly, and she said yes. I texted Steven, and he said we should call the dentist. And then we FaceTimed with him so she could show him. :) She was so proud, and he told her all about how to put it under her pillow for the tooth fairy. It was so sweet, she was so excited. So later that morning while I was getting ready for church, Emma wrapped her tooth in toilet paper 😝 and put it under her pillow. I realized she had moved it and told her we needed to save it for the dentist before we could give it to the tooth fairy. We went to get it and...it wasn't there! 😳 She though the tooth fairy had already come!! Um....I told the tooth fairy only comes at night, and then found the tooth on the floor. We do not do Santa, and I don't mind the tooth fairy, but I'm not into lying to my child. I asked her who she thought the tooth fairy was, who does she thinks really puts the money under her pillow? "Jesus!" Sigh. We were headed to church, and I just didn't know what to say. So I have the tooth, and the tooth fairy business is on hold until we go see the dentist on Wednesday....to be continued.
