Tooth Fairy



We are excited to have another fairy visiting our house these days.  This time it's the beloved Tooth Fairy!  Hannah lost her first tooth a few weeks ago, another milestone.  Tonight while she was jumping on her bed (something that isn't allowed of course, making it so much more fun!), she stumbled and bumped her lip against her knee.  Next thing you know, her tooth is hanging, literally by a thread.  She hurried to the bathroom, where she peered into the mirror and pulled her tooth out.  She was a little concerned about the amount of blood but once that stopped she was okay.  
She wanted to 'brush' her tooth one last time to be sure it was nice and shiny for the Tooth Fairy.  She also decided to rinse it under water.  OOPS!  Down the drain it fell.  Her big blue eyes filled with tears immediately, she was so very upset about not having her tooth for the Tooth Fairy.  Michael started taking the pipe apart, immediately, while I took Hannah aside to explain that if we didn't find it, I was certain the Tooth Fairy would understand and we would write her a note explaining what happened.  
Alas,  Super Hero Daddy came around the corner, tooth in hand!  Hannah was so many things at once; happy, excited, relieved and crying.  phew!  What an exciting night.
