Guess who's coming to our house?

Yep, the tooth fairy!

Jameson lost her "first" tooth since coming to America. It's been loose for the entire 4 months she's been here, but she finally got the courage to give it a little tug... and out it came.
We have been trying to explain "who" the tooth fairy is.
Yes, I know. It seems cruel to lie to your children about fantasy things, but it got started long ago, and who am I to break the family tradition? The older kids don't seem to be mortally wounded by finding out who the real tooth fairy is. And so now I scramble to find some change to put under her pillow...

We always told our kids the Tooth Fairy was actually the dentist just working his night job. We then told our dentist to keep it alive. Our dentist was a lil' freaky and started talking about how the pink tu-tu itches but it is cool to fly... They totally bought until about 2 years ago.

I can't wait to hear all about the tooth fairy visit from Jameson. Careful she might start pulling all her teeth out ! Much Love.
