For a couple of weeks, Kaley has been commenting that she had a loose tooth, It was usually in "play". Then, last week, we noticed that Kaley's bottom tooth DID look like it was moving. I asked her if she fell at school. "No" was her answer. She then said she was excited about the tooth fairy coming. I had a feeling that this "loose" tooth was something that she was forcing so that the tooth fairy would come. I told her that the tooth fairy couldn't come yet, because Kaley wasn't on the tooth fairy's list because she was a bit young to loose a tooth. The next day, I happened to glance in her mouth and noticed that her gum was swollen and it looked like something "white" was popping through. Well, things progressed quickly and Thursday, we made a quick trip to Joanne's for fabric for Kaley's tooth fairy pillow. Friday, the tooth was a' hanging and I was a' sewing. Kaley did not eat much Friday or Saturday and finally today, she was munching salad and.....the tooth popped out. For the next couple of hours, Kaley kept the tooth in place, but wouldn't talk. Finally, she was coughing and the tooth was out for good. She spit it out and placed in my hand and...smiled:)
