Evan got to use his tooth fairy pillow for the first time last night. I got a phone call at about 9pm, “Grandma, my Mom just pulled out my tooth”, and I reply, “That’s so cool. You get to use your new pillow tonight!”. Evan says, “Ya, it was really bleeding a lot.” I was so excited for him, and the fact that he called to let me know.
Here’s a cute picture of Evan’s new smile. He tells me, “Grandma, you should see how much of my tongue sticks out now!” Such a ham, such a boy.
When I saw him today I asked him how much money the tooth fairy left him. He said, “One dollar and seven cents.” I asked my daughter about that later this evening, and she said the tooth fairy left him a dollar, and there was seven cents laying in his bed, so he told his Mom it was all from the tooth fairy. Oh to be six years old again!
Such a passage of time. Can’t you still remember feeling that new space in your mouth with your tongue?
