I Never Wanted a Loose Tooth


"Can you glue it back in please?"
she sobbed.
"I never wanted a loose tooth.
Now I don't look like a pretty princess.
People are going to laugh at me.
You better not tell anyone,
this is embarrassing!"

Well, I hope someday she will forgive me because this is just too cute to keep to myself. Right after getting out of the bathtub this morning, Brigitta pulled the towel around herself with her teeth and out popped her tooth. The poor girl, locked herself in the bathroom for 10 minutes in tears. I thought that I had settled all of these issues with her when her tooth first became loose, but apparently not. I gently reminded her of our conversations of the past 2 weeks on the subject of teeth. When she finally came to the realization that the "Tooth Fairy" would be visiting our house this evening she came out to face the world. Her nieces were concerned that she was hurt because of all of the tears, but when she showed them what had happened they were excited and now Arianna suddenly has a loose tooth of her own.




After a few hugs and reassurance that it would indeed grow back, she managed to produce a smile.
