FINALLY GONE!!

For years Madi has been waiting patiently - and not so patiently at times - for her first tooth to come out. It all started when her best friend, Brooklyn, back home lost her first tooth, and soon all her friends seemed to be loosing teeth left and right, but Madi still didn't have any that were even wiggling. Since she didn't get most of her teeth until after the age of one there was nothing to be concerned about as far as dentists were concerned. In fact, they kept telling us that it is better for your teeth if your permanent ones came in later. Somehow this didn't make Madi any happier at not having any holes in her mouth.

She has been waiting since then and finally a few weeks ago her bottom tooth had some pain and then at the beginning of last week it started to wiggle. On Friday when she came home from school she could push her tooth outward with her tongue almost all the way. About a half an hour after being home it finally came out. You should have seen the look on her face - pure joy!!! Finally the tooth fairy gets to come to our house!!!

I had found this book about a year ago and have been saving it for the big day. A book about the tooth fairy and a little special bag for her to put her tooth in so that it can be found easily and be exchange for some money. Of course the tooth fairy came during the night and brought one gold coin and a few silver ones. One lucky little girl!!!
