After a few weeks of anxious wiggling and painful apple biting, we have an official lost tooth! Lauryn was so excited to have her tooth finally come out. This was that morning's conversation:
(Ben and Lauryn had been sleeping in his tent)
Lauryn: My tooth hurts. I think it's almost out.
Ben: Try to move it.
Lauryn: I'm trying to, but I can't feel it.
Ben: Where is it?
Lauryn: I don't know. I was just wiggling it. Hey, I think I feel something.
Ben: Let me see!
Lauryn: Yeah, it's my tooth!
Ben: Mom!! Lauryn's tooth came out!
It was hard to tell who was more excited, but she definitely came out beaming. And it seems we have a very generous Tooth Fairy! Initially the Tooth Fairy thought $1 was perfect, but the Tooth Fairy's husband thought that wasn't sufficient to celebrate a 1st tooth! So the next morning, this was the conversation:
Ben: Mom, what was that you were writing last night with Lauryn's name on it. It looks like the Tooth Fairy's note.
Mom: (shooting the former a dirty look) Well, I don't know why.
Lauryn: The Tooth Fairy gave me $5!
Ben: Hey, I think the Tooth Fairy only gave me $2 for my first tooth! (Shooting a dirty look my way.)
Oops!
