The toothfairy cometh



oh my gosh oh my gosh....
Mr. K has had a loose tooth for about a week.
just happened to notice it and started making a deal about it.
lucky me..Little Bear lost a tooth this week also so mr. k watched with great intensity on the ways of the toothfairy.
tonight..big big girlscout meeting...house was a flurry.
bed time comes...
ask mr. k how is loose tooth is doing.
he grins at me.
NO tooth.
Where's the tooth?
Oh no...did he swallow it???
NO tooth.
No big deal.

got the tooth pocket out (a leather pouch that douglas made years and years ago - shaped like a tooth with velcro closure)
oops...there is already a tooth in it from the last visit (must be ms. r's)
big smile and much laughter
big sister R writes note to tooth fairy apologizing for lack of booty.

to bed he goes
mom makes the big switch
slips a quarter in the pocket and a note from fairy saying No Problem - will get the next one..
put tooth pocket high on the dresser so she can 'reach' it...
this mom is too smart to slip it under a pillow....:)

my big boy...
too cute..

will post pics soon...my plugger inners were mailed the other day from BG...
