Toothless tiger…
Well, it took some serious pressure…
Verbal pressure, that is. To convince our daughter that in order for the TOOTH to come out, she actually had to WRIGGLE it. And convince her that the Tooth Fairy could NOT go on a school camp with her, so she really needed to lose it BEFORE the weekend. And that it was a world-wide accepted FACT that a tooth that had been sitting SIDEWAYS in someone’s head for close to a MONTH was probably ready to COME OUT.
In tears (and yes, I am probably going to hell) she trounced off, muttering furiously:
‘You are so mean to me. It’s NOT ready, it’s NOT ready, it’s NOT ready…’
And within a MINUTE (after sneaking a finger into her mouth) she screamed out:
‘LOOK LOOK LOOK. It was READY Mummy!’
The note from the afore-mentioned Tooth Fairy read:
‘FINALLY. Thank You. TF. xx’
Gorgeous. (And just a little bit vampire-like.)

PS Anyone notice the SIZE of the teeth trying to get through… I am beginning saving immediately for the orthodontist. I’ve a feeling he/she could be a big part of our future.

I noticed the the new ones which look lovely, they don’t look to be crooked, lets hope there is enough room for them. they may push all the others out.

Ah too cute, I’m glad it’s finally out. My neice lost one of her last teeth over the summer she’s ten.

Is it really possible that she’s even cuter now-before those front teeth come in. Yep, the new ones look mighty different that the ones she lost !~! I see a nice boat in your orthodontist’s not too distant future.

my grand daughter found my daughters stash of teeth the tooth fairy had taken, she was very interested to know how Mommy got them from the tooth fairy. my daughter told her the tooth fairy know mommies like to keep those kind of things so she sends them back to mommy when she gets back to her palace.
