The tooth is out; the fairy is in!
Eva lost her first tooth today. As best I can tell it was during Chinese class, and was the result of vigorous wiggling. "It did not hurt, Mom"! She jubilantly greeted me at ECP (aftercare), literally leaping over toys and people to get to me to tell me the news. And then she ran to find her backpack to retrieve the tooth.
In the car on the way home from dinner, I casually mentioned that maybe we should put her tooth on her nightstand instead of under her pillow, since her pillow has a tendency to move a lot during the night and even fall off the bed, and we wouldn't want the tooth fairy to have trouble finding her tooth. She thought that was a great idea. A fabulous conversation ensued regarding how big the tooth fairy is -- end result is that she is just big enough to bring in a quarter and remove a tooth. Wait till Eva sees the dollar coin that I just noticed the tooth fairy brought (versus a quarter)!
Life is good!
P.S. . . how bout that hair, huh? I was really focused on the gap in the teeth and not the wild hair.

SO Awesome! I can't wait to be the tooth fairy. I have big plans for putting sparkly lotion all over the money so Layla thinks it's pixie dust. Not my original idea, by the way, but I still love it.
I didn't realize Eva was in Chinese class - for language, right? I would LOVE to chat about that....Eric and I decided a while back that we want to do that with Layla as well, but I wasn't sure how to go about it. I would love to hear how it's going and what the setup is!
