When Lilly was 18 months old, she slipped off our bed and smacked her new front teeth on our metal side rails. As a result, it loosened her teeth and chipped the front tooth. She looked like she had a little fang. When she was 2 1/2 she got in a tangle at daycare and a little boy threw a Lego bench at her and knocked out her front tooth, no it wasn't her chipped tooth it was the one next to it. Leaving a hole. YESTERDAY, while jumping on the tramp with an Elmo doll, it bounced up and smacked her in the face resulting in her chipped tooth to fall out....this poor 3 year old looks 6 with all her missing teeth...but here is Lilly with now two teeth missing.
We'll just call her fang.
We were all excited about having the tooth fairy come. Both girls were going to get money for their pain and suffering...until the moment of bedtime when me girls told me they were both scared to death of the tooth fairy. WHAT???
Just how can someone be scared of the Tooth Fairy. Its unheard of. I told them that she was little, like Tinkerbell. But they just couldn't fathom the thought of a little fairy coming in and stealing their teeth while they slept. I guess to them it was like a spider or a bug attacking them in their sleep. They were so scared that they didn't even want to sleep in their room. Scared of the Tooth Fairy??? I didn't think my kids were scared of anything.

I honestly never heard of that either - But, It makes sense! If you think about it, I can't say that having someone sneak into my room while I was sleeping is a pleasant thought... : )
Oooops! I was checking through the latest blogs and wrote my comment about the tooth fairy in the next one about Gracie's first lost tooth. Senility is such a wonderful thing...=)
