The Toothfairy

the candy cane was a little bribe

Morgan lost another tooth, that makes two now.  Both times she has refused to let us pull them out.  She would rather keep her cute little baby teeth than replace them with those large, adult permanent teeth.  It was literally hanging by a thread!  I being the "mean mom", reached in and lifted it right out ( I was afraid she would swallow it in her sleep that night).  Once it was out she was totally fine with it, ready for the Toothfairy visit!  As usual, the Toothfairy was running a little late and made her visit later that morning.  It didn't matter to Morgan either way, the only disappointment was that the Toothfairy only left a dollar this time!  We explained to her that the Toothfairy leaves the amount of money she believes the tooth is worth, i.e. how hard it was to pull out, the size of the tooth, care given, etc....
