Paging the tooth fairy!

Jensen has wanted to a lose a tooth for quite awhile now. Nearly all of his friends have already lost two teeth, and he hadn't even lost one. He kept asking me to feel his front teeth, because he was pretty certain they were starting to feel al ittle bit loose. (they weren't.) But finally . . . . .he really did lose a tooth! We kept teasing him the night before that he should just be brave and pull it out, but he kept saying it hurt too bad. The next day, after school, he had a very mischievous grin on his face. I asked if he had a good day at school and he just nodded his head, then his mouth went into a huge grin! He had finally lost a tooth. He pulled it out at school, and thank goodness, he said there wasn't any blood. He had been brave after all . . . . maybe he was just being macho in front of his friends, and pulled it out himself at school. His teacher gave him a big tooth container to put his tooth in so he could get home with the lost tooth. He was pretty pumped the next morning when he saw the fairy dust left on his pillow during the night, and even more pumped when he saw what was left in place of his tooth.
