our first tooth!!!! How exciting....Jake lost his first tooth over the weekend. It was funny because I was in my room and all of a sudden, I hear Jake running around looking for me and when he came in the room - I freaked out because all I could see was blood everywhere!!!!! I said, "Jake, Jake - what happened"......and of course, he started crying!!!! Then I realized that he was holding his tooth!!!!! Ok - so now, I've got to compose myself and start jumping up and down all excited about his first tooth coming out.....he was like - ok - what - are you upset about the blood or are you excited about this??". Too cute!
You have to realize - I've had my share of "scares" with Jake and even though he hasn't had an episode since his emergency surgery in 06 - I tend to always be so leary! I know that I've got to get past this - but I've lived in this state for so long - that it's hard to bounce into the other role......but, I'm going to get better!
I got his tooth - put it in a bag - explained all about the tooth fairy and how she would come at night and hopefully leave him some money.....shouldn't have said that - he wanted to get some more "teeth" out of his mouth!!! LOL
The next morning when he came in the room -I ask him if the tooth fairy had come during the night and he said "no mom, she didn't come"........I said - are you sure? He said, yes - I looked under my pillow - I said - well come no - lets go look some more.....sure enough - there it was. His face lit up so bright - he said "awesome mom".......
the expressions on their faces - priceless!!! I love all the "first" with him - it's hysterical to watch him try to figure out how the tooth came out, what the tooth fairy did with it and how did she get into the house.....like Santa Claus mommy???
scripture for the day: I Corinthians 13:13 (message bible) " Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love".
be blessed.

How exciting! Hayden will be so jealous! He wants to lose a tooth so bad. Instead the dentist is having to pull his.... oh well, the tooth fairy still comes just the same. He told me the other day that he was the only one in his class that has not lost a tooth. I'm going to wait a while before I tell him about Jake! LOL Love ya'll! Paulette
how sweet! LOVE the process of growing up with the kids. This makes their school pictures so fun!
Wow, he did lose his early. Poor Hayden. I think Madeline just lost hers not long ago and she is

Ok waiting on some cute snaggle tooth pics. I can just hear him wanting to pull more so he can get more $$$. I think he's about too smart for the fairy thing!
