The First Lost Tooth

Olivia has been envious of her friends who have lost their teeth, some of whom 
are even younger than her.

She was so happy a couple of weeks ago when she finally found one of her bottom 
front teeth was wiggling. And it has been wiggling, and wiggling…seems like forever.

Today, when I picked her up from the summer camp, I noticed immediately when she 
opened her mouth that she had lost a tooth…however not the one that has been wiggling 
but the one right next to it. Hmm…I have never heard her saying that one is loose, 
I hope it did not hurt.

Olivia told me that when she ate ice cream this afternoon, she found that the tooth 
got stuck in the ice cream after just one bite.  As simple as that, and it didn't 
hurt at all.

Olivia put her tooth in a white envelope and took it home. Then she drew her face 
on the envelope showing a missing tooth and a close-up of the tooth. She also 
highlighted where the tooth was located inside the envelope.

When Daddy called on his way back home, she was so excited she rushed to the phone 
and broke the news to him.

She told us that she would put the envelope under her pillow and wait for the tooth 
fairy to bring a surprise for her the next morning.
