Lily's been having a loose tooth.. since August!! I don't know how she did it that is stayed put, until bathtime this Friday, when she spit it into the sink while brushing her teeth. A moment between terror and excitement was turned to excitement, followed by doubt about whether the tooth fairy would find her.. or would even bother to come visit her for only this teeny-tiny tooth.
Well, let me tell you, the tooth fairy found Lily, and she took that teeny-tiny tooth, leaving a coin in return. And from her running out of her room over-the-moon-excited with that little coin in her hand, I think it's safe to say, tooth fairy did her job.
On that topic, we had a little discussing while brushing Lily's hair tonight:
Lily: Mami, does the tooth fairy really exist??
I: I don't know, Lily.. What do YOU think?
Lily: Mami, I know the tooth fairy exists. She left me a coin, do you remember? That means she HAS to exist!!
Love my Lily!
This is so sweet! Yay for the tooth fairy. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jen!! It was a long way coming, but somehow, she was still surprised :-)
DeleteLily is so cute and I still have a few years for this, but have a feeling both my girls will truly be excited when it is their turns!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's going to happen sooner than you think, Janine :-)
DeleteShe has such a cute little toothless smile! And I LOVE her reasoning for whether or not the Tooth Fairy exists. :-)
ReplyDeleteShe's such a practical-thinking girl :-)
ReplyDeleteAww. That's so sweet! I can only imagine Lily's smile when she looked underneath her pillow and found that coin. Haha! Kids can really be sweet even in just the littlest things. I do hope that she takes care of her teeth once the permanent ones come out. :D

How many times did the tooth fairy visit her since then? Looks like all the teeth the fairy will collect from her will be white and healthy. I hope the fondness she has for the tooth fairy will be the same with the dentist, who are actually the “tooth fairies” in real life. Have a great day!
