Other than a dimple in a cute little chin, what's more adorable than a toothless grin?

Just so everyone knows-- Isaac got his tooth pulled this morning and there was nothin' to it. He got a baggie of goodies to bring home and still says "Mom, I like going to the dentist." Of course he didn't have a lazy day like we all thought he might. He was running around like nothin' happened, except we let him have some popsicles and ice cream of course. His tongue keeps exploring the new space in his mouth and describing how it feels to me. Now Zoey wants to go to the dentist and she can't wait for her first tooth to come out. She's got a ways to go yet. But I suppose this means the tooth fairy should stop by tonight? Does anyone have some cash? What is the tooth fairy's going rate for teeth that need to be pulled by the dentist?

Whoops! Guess you were waiting for me to weigh in on this one. The tooth fairy did not come for Eddie right away, in part because his parents wanted to show off the teeth-in-a-box for a few weeks.

When Lucy asked why the tooth fairy didn't come for Ed, we explained that he'd never bothered to put the teeth under his pillow. THEN the tooth fairy forgot to come, of course... because our tooth fairy has brain damage... and we had to sneak 50 cents under the pillow after Lucy had already checked under there. Actually did a pretty neat palming trick there. Then Eddie (who has no concept of money because he's 3) got the 50 cents left it in his bed and I confiscated it because it's 50 WHOLE CENTS.

So I think for a 3-year-old you can skip the TF; for a 6 year old you call the TF that night because a tooth out is a tooth out, right?

You have to express more your opinion to attract more readers, because just a video or plain text without any personal approach is not that valuable. But it is just form my point of view

I read a article under the same title some time ago, but this articles quality is much, much better. How you do this?
